Psychiatrists and mental health in philately.
Can it be said that history's most outstanding psychiatrists and the various interrelated fields of mental health are to any extent realistically represented within the framework of thematic philately? With regard to the latter theme, five main categories can be distinguished: the mentally handicapped; psychiatric institutions, founders, nursing staff, etc.; prevention of alcohol and drug abuse; congresses and, finally, famous psychiatric patients. This article is a summary based on the brochure of the same name (32 pages in colour) published by CIBA-GEIGY B.V., Arnhem, The Netherlands.
