Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 031320196X, Hardcover)

Dr. Szasz presents four case histories which highlight his contention that pretrial psychiatric examination and subsequent `hospitalization' are travesties `on justice and healing which ought to be repudiated by both the legal and medical professions."
