Abstract
S TATISTICS on the prevalence of mental disease cannot prove any theory of causation, but they suggest where to look for cause and they can disprove erroneous ideas. Comparative statistics for different countries are even more valuable since they allow detection of cultural variation in the manifestation of illnesses and in their identification.Keywords
