as by those more intimately associated with the care of the insane. Dr. Rees Thomas (one of the Commissioners of the Board of Control) who writes the Foreword, points out that the occupation of patients in mental hospitals in this country has been practised for one hundred years or so, but fails to draw the reader's attention to the fact that this has been limited to willing patients, representing on an average about 30 per cent, of the total. This is a very different thing to what is meant to-day by " occupational therapy " in its true sense, as those who read this book will learn.

gratulated on fulfilling a want in a field so long left barren. While the book is necessarily written from an American viewpoint, essential problems of administration vary but little from country to country. Dr. Bryan's opinions, based on long experience, are worth while, practical and ably presented, and his book should be of the greatest benefit to all psychiatrists engaged in institutional practice.

It is characteristic of the American approach to social problems that it should be thought worth while for the American Foundation for Mental Hygiene to finance a survey of the treatment of the mentally ill. It is perhaps not so characteristic that the subject should be approached by a social historian from the standpoint of the gradual development of social attitudes and of the institutions through which these attitudes became shaped.
