From strenuous opposition to physician-assisted suicide to a conviction that sex-correction surgery for newborns is cruel and misguided, Dr. Paul R. In this collection of essays, McHugh demonstrates why he is one of the most thought-provoking figures in the academic world.These pieces argue for a realistic appraisal of just what psychiatrists know and how they know it, with the aim of indicating how such knowledge can best be used not only for better patient care but also to reflect on and influence public issues and social movements. McHugh's opinions are strong and often controversial.
