Anthony Daniels (Psychiatrist)Anthony (A.M.) Daniels is a British physician and writer who frequently uses the pen name Theodore Dalrymple. Daniels has worked as a doctor and psychiatrist, in Zimbabwe and Tanzania, and more recently at a prison and a public hospital in Birmingham, in central England. He has combined this work with extensive travel (in Africa, South America, Eastern Europe, and elsewhere), as well as with the production of a novel and numerous pieces of journalism and cultural commentary. Daniels has revealed in his writing that his father was a Communist activist, while his mother was born in Germany and came to the United Kingdom as a refugee from the Nazi regime. In his commentary, Daniels frequently argues that the progressive views prevalent within Western intellectual circles tend to minimize the responsibility of individuals for their own actions and to undermine traditional mores, thus contributing to the formation within rich countries of a vast underclass afflicted by endemic violence, criminality, sexual promiscuity, and drug abuse.
