What was psychiatry before the fall of the Berlin Wall on both sides of it and what dark roots in the mists of time it had, what is the tyrannical psychology of scoundrels who claim the sacred title of doctors yesterday and today, how violence against “scapegoats” was justified in the era developed industrial society, how and why hospitals became a means of mass extermination and “calming” its undesirable elements, from what perverted logic did the gentlemen proceed who treated sexual “perversions” - all this in a wonderful book by a man who rightfully takes his place in the pantheon of fighters for the liberation of human nature alongside Erich Fromm and Herbert Marcuse. The book is recommended for reading by psychiatrists and their patients.
