A growing number of psychiatrists and patients are turning their backs on traditional concepts of mental illness. They are asking: Who is mad? What is madness? Many believe that big psychiatric hospitals, like Middlewood Hospital in Sheffield - the subject of last week's Man Alive - are not the answer.

This week Gordon Snell talks to the people who are working inside and outside the National Health Service to find new ways of treating patients and to those who are going out into the community to tackle people's problems in their homes.

Few trials in American history have so troubled the liberal conscience in the United States and Europe as the trial of the Rosenbergs. Was the information they passed any use? Did they in fact pass any secrets at all? Were they framed?
