  "The lives they left behind"by Mary Ann C. (see profile) 10/03/13

Sad to read and realize that these hospitals really existed. Sparked an interest in what mental health is like today

 
  "The Lives They Left Behind"by Georgia F. (see profile) 10/03/13

It had a wonderful introduction, but my interest waned soon thereafter. The authors did a lot of research, but it was not presented well. It read like a text book.

 
  "The Lives They Left Behind: Suitcases from a State Hospital Attic"by Karen H. (see profile) 10/03/13

Interesting book but more like a textbook poorly written.
