  • Choosing ten books that have most influenced my practice is an odd challenge. I wasn't one of those medical students who wanted to do psychiatry since he was 12, or read most of Freud or Jung. In fact throughout medical school, and for several years as a junior doctor, I thought psychiatry and psychiatrists were pretty weird. It was only in my general practice vocational training year that I realised how much of medicine concerned the psychological and began my psychiatric training. This influence came not through books that I read but through the patients whom I saw.

  • In the novel Hard Times, Charles Dickens gives his views on education. His character Mr Gradgrind believes in ‘facts’ and is suspicious of the imagination. All we need to know about the world, he maintains, can be reduced to simple facts. Dickens shows that such a philosophy leads to the impoverishment of the mind and to the weakening of ethical reasoning. Today it seems that the descendants of Mr Gradgrind are still in charge. The main psychiatric library where I work has been closed. It is argued that we can obtain all the ‘facts’ we need from the internet. The notion that books might have more to offer than prosaic detail, that they reflect the rich diversity of human experience, seems alien to the modern-day Gradgrinds.
