Christopher Dole on psychiatry and disaster in Turkey
Christopher Dole, professor of anthropology at Amherst College, on “Living On: Psychiatry and the Future of Disaster in Turkey” (Stanford University Press).
The book is an account of the psychiatric response to the August 1999 Marmara Earthquake, which killed over 20,000 people and left hundreds of thousands injured or displaced. It also examines the legacy of the earthquake in the communities and lives of its survivors and among the Turkish mental health professionals who responded to it.
