That ends with "The range and scope of this Encyclopedia is vivid testimony to the intellectual vitality of the field, and will, one hopes, make a useful contribution to the next generation of sociological research on the cultural sociology of mental illness." What "encyclopedia"? Was this text copied from the intro to some book?
