About This Book
This is a collection of essays on the history of Psychiatry. Volume II of three, offers works around the institutions and society from the eighteenth century to 1917. Most of the papers in these volumes arose from a seminar series on the history of psychiatry and a one-day seminar on the same theme held at the Wellcome Institute for the History of Medicine, London, during the academic year 1982-83.
