  • Choosing ten books you would take to a desert island as your sole companions is not that difficult a task for a consultant psychiatrist working in the National Health Service. This is because current working conditions remarkably resemble eking out an existence in a desolate place. You have to make do with whatever detritus you find washed up on the shore as resources, and after a long while, you might find a footprint in the sand indicating that a manager once passed by. This discovery produces a mixture of emotions, including fear, because you aren't sure if you ever meet whether you will be able to communicate, and also whether you might not be eaten alive.

  • This is an opportunity, but also a challenge, to write about books, especially at a time when the pre-eminence of books as the source and repository of knowledge is no longer indisputable. It is, of course, an impossible task to select merely ten books with the implication that these ten have been the most influential in my professional career, which is the same thing as saying that they have been the most influential books in my life. I have selected ten books from literature, philosophy and psychiatry, and these books, drawn from all my main interests, serve as the springboard for discussing other books. There is no principle underlying the order in which the books are discussed. In many respects, the order has been dictated by the internal logic of this essay.
