Location: MSPP
Description: We are faced with the mental health care of veterans returning from the destruction of war—again. How do we respond to humans reacting to inhuman experiences? How do we respond to the families and communities that are part of their lives and struggles? How do we deal with war, that public health hazard which produces these casualties? This Lindemann Lecture addresses these issues from clinical, political-administrative, and social-historical perspectives.
