British Journal of Psychiatric Social Work

Published by the Association of Psychiatric Social Workers. 3s. 6d.

This is a new publication. The second issue contains a number of interesting articles by psychiatric social workers in fields of work as varied as Child Guidance Clinics, Maternity and Child Welfare centres, Community Care and a community of Displaced Persons.

There is a paper on a psychiatric social worker’s personal experience in group therapy, and a report on an investigation by the Parents Group of the Association of Psychiatric Social Workers into the psychology of pregnancy and lactation and institutional midwifery. Although some of the articles express very individual points of view which could hardly be taken to represent the opinions of psychiatric social workers as a group, they are nevertheless interesting. The Journal should appeal to all who are concerned with the mental health aspect of social work. C.H.S.
