"This is a remarkable account by the foremost advocate for improving our understanding of mental health and mental illness. Mrs. Carter shows us lucidly how this understanding will lead to improved care of those who are ill and how to combat the stigma long associated with mental illness. This book should be widely read to move us toward a more informed, compassionate society" (Julius B. Richmond, M.
