Put Away

This classic book allows its readers for the first time to comprehend the size, organization, staffing, and operation of a national system of hospitals and residential services for the subnormal. It also allows for the first time, reliable estimates to be given of the scale and severity of certain problems. The basis has been laid for an evaluation of the effectiveness of hospitals for the subnormal. All this was made possible by a generous grant from the National Society for Mentally Handicapped Children to the Department of Sociology at the University of Essex upon the foundation of the University. Of course, a great deal of further research remains to be done but a preliminary network of information is now available to all those deeply concerned about the handicapped.Morris, Pauline is the author of 'Put Away ' with ISBN 9780202308807 and ISBN 0202308804.
