We cannot plead a poverty-stricken society but like to think in terms of irresponsible families. There is no evidence ot irresponsible families.3 4 We cannot really face the issue of deterrence. The workhouse setup appeared to work in the past only because of the compulsion of the Poor Law, and to expect it to work on a voluntary basis in an affluent society at the end of the 20th century is ludicrous. What Drs. Hodkinson and Jefferys do not appear to recognize is that the \"social dehiscence\" which they try so hard to avoid, but are not very clear about, has nearly always occurred already. It is the commonest single reason that brings people to hospital. It is a gaping, a bursting open, and not a withering. The metaphor is crucial because on it hangs the validity of their paper. We have two geriatric units side by side in very similar areas but using very different methods. There is no way of finding out from present statistics what happens to people who pass through hospital except in a very general way. This would appear to be an excellent opportunity for a research project and we should welcome this.-I am, etc., F. A. BINKS
