A Helping Hand

This book deals with the simple premise that people with problems need help. The urgent pace of societal development of the past two decades has brought about the spatial relocation of vast numbers of people to unfamiliar urban surroundings, with unfamiliar people. The loss of familiarity and the disruption of old patterns of life bring about a sense of insecurity, loneliness and rootlessness. In the face of continually growing demands, many people suffer from stress which may lead to depression and suicide. The rising incidence of marital discord and drug addiction in any society are also indicators of growing urban stress.
Anthony Yeo, Director of the Counselling and Care Centre, maintains that we should help those who need our consideration and care. A Helping Hand is invaluable for those who want to help and for those who need help.
