Inhaltsangabe

Retired psychiatrist Dr. Harold Rashkis, M.D. and Ph.D., recounts his early years in New York in a warm and lively Jewish family. After his undergraduate days at City College, New York, and his Master's from Columbia University, with some progress toward his Ph.D., he was drafted into the Army and landed at Fort McClellan in Alabama. His experiences in World War II shaped his later career, when he finished his Ph.D. at Columbia's New York State Psychiatric Institute and Hospital and then earned an M.D. at the University of Pennsylvania. Along the way he cemented his research on schizophrenia, advocating talk therapy over the use of medicines to help the patient. Now 92 years old, Dr. Rashkis reflects on the changes in the practice of psychiatry and the treatment of patients, lending his insights into the work of practitioners today.
