Umschlag leicht berieben, sonst gutes Exemplar. - The present volume assesses the long-range impact of the initial home-care program, then continues with a longitudinal (five-year) review of patients' adaptive patterns in the psychiatric, social, familial, and vocational areas. The analysis also permits clarification of the kinds of factors operative in precipitating hospitalizations. The conclusions of the follow-up are dramatic and seem likely to revolutionize practice in the public-health field. The data highlight the failure of current psychiatric treatment to combat the progressive socio-adaptive deterioration of such patients. The findings offer guidelines for mental-health practitioners and administrators that can aid them in interrupting the cycle of recurrent psychotic episodes and hospitalization. Equally important are suggestions concerning the resources needed to sustain the social and economic functioning of the patients in the community.
