In this volume, two Western-trained psychiatrists discuss their mental health work with the community of ultra-orthodox Jews in Jerusalem over a period of two decades. They elaborate on some of the factors that make it difficult to treat or diagnose the ultra-orthodox, and present case studies.

Synopsis:

In this enlightening book two Western-trained psychiatrists discuss the special challenges of their mental health work with ultra-orthodox Jews in Jerusalem. Based on two decades of serving this self-isolated religious minority, Drs. Greenberg and Witztum describe the difficulties of treating and even diagnosing members of the community and suggest principles for therapists working in any multicultural society.
