This book examines the philosophical shift in public welfare work in the United States during the early 20th century and proposes an administrative ideal for such work. It argues that public welfare should be organized into four autonomous bureaus: health, mental hygiene, social, and rehabilitation, each with its own sphere of duties and interrelationships. The author believes that this model would promote efficiency, reduce political interference, and improve the quality of care for those in need. The book is based on the author's own experience as a psychiatrist and administrator, and it draws on insights from social work, public health, and political science. It provides a valuable historical perspective on the development of public welfare in the United States and offers a thoughtful vision for its future.
