title: Challenging scientific advances in mental health.
abstract: Biological and biotechnological advances in the treatment of mental health problems have not, according to the author, produced the benefits for patients that their advocates predicted. In this article, Liam Clarke argues that such advances are only likely to prove effective so far in the future to be irrelevant for clients now and in the next several generations.
