Summary: The entire mental health profession is a load of crap!
Review: Szasz is a psychiatrist who realized that the entire mental health profession is a load of crap - and so are politics, religion, and American sexual morality. In "The Untamed Tongue," Szasz dissects the language of almost every single field of human "knowledge," exposing hypocrisy and obfuscation with wit, clarity and precision. A must read for anyone interested in the role of language in thought control.
