Abstract
This paper maintains that mental health delivery systems must be supplemented by critical analyses of the hidden assumptions that guide policy and technique decisions. It compares the intellectual and clinical impact of B.F. Skinner with that of R.D. Laing, and considers the significance of Skinner's generally less preferred theoretical position having gained more widespread practical application, in the form of token economies, than has Laing's Kingsley Hall concept.
