These finding s demonstrate the immense economic dependence of psychiatrists on institutional employment. In other Western countries, where economic opportunities and social demands for private psychiatric services are much less than in the United States, the proportion of psychiatrists working in mental and other institutions is even greater. In Britain, for example, only 4.5 percent of the psychiatrists spend more than half their working time in private practice 69 percent are employed on a full-time basis in the National Health Service and 77 percent spend at least part of their time engaged in the treatment of hospital inpatients (as against 51 percent of American psychiatrists). In communist countries, all psychiatry is, of course. Institutional Psychiatry. 

In the United Kingdom, for example, all residents are covered by the National Health Service (NHS) and access to drugs is subsidised directly, leaving only a minor role for private health insurance and a nominal charge to be borne by the patient. In the United States, at the other extreme, health insurance is voluntary and in the hands of proht-driven private insurance companies, leaving only a residual role... 

The UK has one of the largest medical device markets in the world. The market is dominated by the National Health Service (NHS), which accounts for approximately 80% of the healthcare expenditure, even though there are fewer private sectors. 

Every healthcare system uses reporting systems of various kinds, which have different purposes. To illustrate the principal types, we will examine reporting systems in the British National Health Service (NHS) and some of the problems of the existing abundance of poorly integrated systems. As a national system, the NHS should, in principle be able to develop a more rational system than, say, the United States with its hugely heterogeneous system of public and privately... 

Herty communicated the mixed opinions of the Committee to Ransdell. The Senator indicated that he agreed that a privately-endowed institute was desirable, and that his intention was to call attention to the need for such an institution with the hope that some wealthy individuals would step forward to fund it (96, 97). On July 1, 1926, Ransdell did introduce a bill into the Senate calling for the establishment of a National Institute of Health within the United States Public Health Service (98, 99).

In such a manner did Claude S. Hudson embark upon his long career in the government service of the United States. This embraced ten years in the Bureau of Chemistry, five years at the National Bureau of Standards, and twenty-two years with the National Institutes of Health of the United States Public Health Service, from which he retired on January 31, 1951. The continuity of this long service was interrupted in 1911-1912, when Hudson served at Princeton University in place of Professor G. A. Hulett, then on leave of absence, and again, during a five-year period from 1919-1924, when he served as a private consultant in Trenton, New Jersey, and in the Hawaiian Islands. It was during the Princeton sojourn that Julian K. Dale met Dr. Hudson and began a Ph. D. disserta-... 

The great crossroads that was the plan s point of departure has been variously interpreted as a symbol of Christ s cross or an Amazonian bow. Costa, however, referred to it as a monumental axis, the same term that Le Corbusier used to describe the center of many of his urban plans. Even if the axis represented a small attempt to assimilate Brasilia in some way to its national tradition, it remained a city that could have been anywhere, that provided no clue to its own history, unless that history was the modernist doctrine of ciam. It was a state-imposed city invented to project a new Brazil to Brazilians and to the world at large. And it was a state-imposed city in at least one other sense inasmuch as it was created to be a city for civil servants, many aspects of life that might otherwise have been left to the private sphere were minutely organized, from domestic and residential matters to health services, education, child care, recreation, commercial outlets, and so forth.
