Originally published in 1958, this account of the work of
psychiatrists in the British Army during the Second World War is
based on the study of all available documents, published and
unpublished, as well as on the author's first-hand experience of
the clinical and administrative aspects of Army psychiatry. It
deals not only with the wartime problems presented by the high
incidence of mental illness, and the large numbers of mentally
backward and maladjusted men (as they were termed then) in the
Service, but also with the methods developed for the selection and
efficient use of personnel and officers in the face of acute
shortage of man-power; the psychiatric aspects of discipline,
morale, training and prolonged service overseas; the treatment and
evacuation of psychiatric battle casualties in the forward areas,
under difficult and varied conditions; the rehabilitation of
disabled ex-servicemen, and the civil resettlement of repatriated
prisoners of war.
