THE COMMUNITY CHURCH OF BOSTON
SUNDAY SPEAKERS FORUM presents...

Sunday, April 10th, 2011
11:00am

MATTHEW P. DUMONT, M.D
"An Aging Psychiatrist Examines a Crazy World"

Matt Dumont has been a regular speaker at CCB for more than 40 years. His
sharp-edged commentaries on medical, economic, social and political
unrealities have always provoked lively discussions. Here he takes a
wide-screen overview of our current circumstances, their origin and
prospects for the future.

Matt is the author, most recently, of 'Treating the Poor: A Personal Sojourn
Through the Rise and Fall of Community Mental Health'. Recollections and
analysis of his 16 years treating mental illness and confronting social
problems in the city of Chelsea are contained in 'The Absurd Healer'. And
his writings on health care were collected in Dr. Drummond's 'Spirited Guide
to Health in a Dying Empire', winning recognition from the National Press
Club.
