Extract

When I received the invitation to deliver this year's Maudsley Lecture, I felt that a great honour had been conferred upon me. The series of the Maudsley Lectures provide a succession of pictures and a measure of the level attained by psychiatry, not only in Great Britain but throughout the world in recent times. Maudsley himself was a great master in the realm of clinical psychiatry. In these days psychiatry is menaced by many diverse and varied interpretations that tend towards bringing about its disintegration. Reading Maudsley's Pathology of Mind, and reading these lectures that have been given under his name since their foundation, constitutes an invaluable lesson that enables present-day psychiatrists to understand what their real situation is, and what is the field of action that is open to them as scientists in contemporary society.
