The Dr. Peter Breggin Hour - Reform Work Part 1 - 11/20/13

Tuesday Dec 03, 2013
This hour is Part I on the history of my reform work, with emphasis on lessons for the present time. I take the listener through my work as a college volunteer, then medical school and psychiatric residency, showing the dramatic transformation from a profession with a psychosocial wing to a profession that pushes nothing but the biological model. I'll pick up the story with my 1970s anti-lobotomy campaign at a future date.
