This is part of an interview with Dr Michael Corry conducted by Caroline Brennan of Giant Leap Productions.We have edited this section into a separate podcast as it represents an excellent summary of his views on the significance of the mind, and how mental distress and disturbances should be dealt with, as well as his views on how psychiatry in Ireland has failed at that task and why.Giant Leap Productions is an Irish educational media production enterprise.We are deeply grateful to Caroline for her kind permission to reproduce the interview as a podcast.
