Abstract
Two years ago, the government set out a strategy for improving health in ways that can be measured. Health of the Nation set down specific targets, including those for reductions in death rates from heart disease, cancer and accidents. For mental health, targets are more difficult to specify. The goal the government set is “to improve significantly the health and social functioning of mentally ill people”.Keywords
