Unwanted pregnancy should be defined fundamentally in psychological and social terms. Regular contact with women caught up in this intensely human crisis leads one inexorably to a position supporting abortion on demand. Abortion is the option selected regularly by substantial numbers of women of every social class, intelligence level, religious, ethical, or cultural background. This choice represents an absolute historical continuity, for no human group of any time or place studied to date appears to have been abortion free. (33 pp.)

The Treatment of Drug Abusers
Drug abuse begins in adolescent groups and peer-to-peer transmission is responsible for epidemics. This is most malignant when it appears in disadvantaged minority groups in the inner city. The cycle of improvement through treatment is followed by repeated relapse. Most psychiatrists are not prepared to understand that the positive image they enjoy in ordinary practice turns to a negative one in the drug world. Optimal contribution from psychiatrists are associated with team functioning with ex-addicts or paraprofessionals who serve as interpreters of the drug subculture and as primary counselors for patients in treatment.
