摘要：
The huge quantities and contradictions of mental health literature pose obstacles in the selection of useful sources for mental health professionals. The selection process is aided by an examination of how mental health systems operate. Controversies in the field necessitate balance in the collection and a statement of intellectual freedom. A wide range of subject matter is advisable, especially for those patrons who run therapeutic activities to aid the victims of extreme mental illness.
