Book synopsis

Beginning with their first meeting in 1956 and ending with Maxwell Jones' death in 1990, this work covers a friendship between two key figures in social psychiatry and tracks the evolution of therapeutic communities from their experimental beginnings to the established practices that exist today. As a close friend and frequent collaborator, Dennie Briggs is able to recount in detail Jones' revolutionary work in mental hospitals, prisons, communities and schools, and offers an insight into the mind of one of the most important pioneers in the therapeutic community field.
