The Social Problem of Mental Deficiency

The title of this book emphasises what many members of the N.A.M.H. have been pressing for years?that mental deficiency is a social problem. Unfortunately society is in general unwilling to accept its responsibility for a solution; or even to see that the problem exists. We can therefore be grateful to the two authors not only for their book, but also for their own original research, much of which is reported or referred to in its chapters.
