The library
The lectures and the literature behind them
The hospital calls psychiatry when a patient is confused, agitated, in withdrawal, or refusing care, and the team has to decide what to do next. The lectures here come from that work. The literature behind each one comes with it, so a claim can be read back to the paper that supports it.
Lectures

Each began as a talk, on the wards or at a conference, and is being rebuilt here as an illustrated lecture.
