E. Fuller Torrey, the author of the definitive guides to schizophrenia and manic depression, chronicles a disastrous swing in the balance of civil rights that has resulted in numerous violent episodes and left a vulnerable population of mentally ill people homeless and victimized. Interweaving in-depth accounts of landmark cases in California, Wisconsin, and North Carolina with a history of legislation and changes in the mental health care system, Torrey gives shape to the magnitude of our failure and outlines what needs to be done to reverse this ongoing--and accelerating--disaster. A new epilogue on the 2011 shooting in Tucson, Arizona, brings this tragic story up to date.

As a lover of sheepskin everything, I will say this is one of the best pelts I've bought. Very thick n fluffy, very soft, clean, and no smell...and the best price I've found as well. I'm buying more of these!

Quality hide
Size: 2' x 3' (Oblong)
I've purchased 5 hides from different offerings on this platform. I keep coming back to these for my needs due to the quality and price. I also prefer the natural state these are in, compared to the dyed versions offered by others. Highly recommend by me someone who actually uses them for home bedding and camping bedroll purposes.
