The name R. D. Laing continues to be widely recognized by those in the psychotherapy community in the United States and Europe. Laing¿s books are a testament to his breadth of interests, including the understanding of madness, alternatives to conventional psychiatric treatment, existential philosophy and therapy, family systems, cybernetics, mysticism, and poetry. He is most remembered for his devastating critique of psychiatric practices, his controversial rejection of the concept of `mental illness, ¿ and his groundbreaking center for people in acute mental distress at Kingsley Hall, London.
