The Antithesist Vision of William Rhodes.

Wood, Frank H.

Behavioral Disorders, v7 n4 p234-43 Aug 1982

Perspectives concerning William Rhodes' philosophy and his 1975 predictions about the mental health system are offered. Rhodes characterized the traditional mental health system as one that suppresses individuality in the interests of social control. On the other hand, in innovative progressional institutions, power is shared by providers with consumers. (SEW)
