Pickren, W. E., and Schneider, S. F. (Eds.) (2004).
  Psychology and the National Institute of Mental Health: A
Historical Analysis of Science, Practice, and Policy.
Washington, D. C.: American Psychological Association
Press.

This edited volume provides a historical analysis of the
reciprocal relationship of psychology and the NIMH.  The 11
chapters illustrate the expansion of psychology and its
influence on government since World War II, and highlight
the NIMH?s impact on the field through its mental health
policy, research and training grant programs, and mental
health services.  The copious references and tables will
provide scholars with rich resources for future specialized
histories of post-WWII psychology and the government.
