About this item

by Stanley Wilkin (Author)

Medicine occupies the position of a state within a state and claims rights over patients. It runs itself outside the laws of liberal democracies. Psychiatry has roots in eugenics and Nazi rule in Germany. Psychiatrists originated the first racist organisations in Germany, and the holocaust emerged from psychiatry with hundred of thousands of mental health patients killed from 1933 onward. This book challenges the rights accorded to medicine and suggests that no liberal political system can tolerate, or should, powerful groups that operate as states within a state. The elite rights given to medical practitioners are neither realistic nor necessary.
