Books by Nick Manning

Nick Manning tells the story of the therapeutic community movement, analyses the leading British community, the Henderson Hospital and examines the development of community based therapeutic communities in Australia.

The three objectives of this text are: to provide newcomers with a basic guide to the structures and processes of government; to provide reformers with some understanding of how to work with the grain of the existing institutional arrangements; and to pay tribute to the people who have kept the system running and who are now reforming it.
