Abstract

In these extracts from the inaugural Henry Hawkins Annual Lecture, Professor Peter Beresford, Professor of Social Policy at Brunel University, challenges the unthinking use of cliché and empty concepts by professionals and suggests that more effort is needed if we are going to get mental health services on track. The Henry Hawkins Lecture was organised by national mental health charity MACA (the Mental After Care Association) on Wednesday 24 October 2001, at the Gibson Hall in the City of London.
