Extract

The main questions of diagnosis and classification of depressive illness put forward by Sir Aubrey Lewis in the 30's are still under discussion. Despite the many published clinical studies of affective illness, there remain—as recently stressed by Klerman (1971)—problems requiring further description and investigation.
