SUMMARY OR ABSTRACT
Text of Note
It is not easy for a layman to attract attention to a book like this. That is why this book, the Congress it reports and the World Federation for Mental Health itself can be meaningful to both laymen and professional people. The 1981 Manila Congress of the World Federation for Mental Health was a unique and special gathering.
