Regeneration is the first book of a trilogy about World War I and the psychological effects of the horrors of war. It is set in Scotland at the Craiglockhart War Hospital in 1917 where "shell-shocked" officers were sent for treatment. Today, we would call it post-traumatic stress. The story focuses on Dr W.H.R.Rivers, an actual psychologist, and a mix of real and fictional patients.

A stunning account of the horrors of war seen through the eyes of patients and a psychiatrist at a World War I mental hospital. The fact that two of the patients are well known war poets is really incidental.
