| Publishers Description | |||
| Withymead,
a Georgian house beside the River Exe outside Exeter in Devon, was
the home of Gilbert and Irene Champernowne, who turned it, during the Second
World War, into a unique sanctuary of healing for people in mental
distress. A residential therapeutic community made up of staff as well as patients, Withymead pioneered the use of art therapy and Jungian analysis in a family setting. This is an intimate and dramatic account of a remarkable achievement written by a psychiatrist who knew the community well and is able to present it in the context of its time.
