Illustrations of Madness (Psychology Revivals) - John Haslam - Bog

Bag om Illustrations of Madness (Psychology Revivals)

John Haslam¿s Illustrations of Madness, written in 1810, occupies a special place in psychiatric history, it was the first book-length account of one single psychiatric case written by a British psychiatrist. Originally published in 1988 as part of the Tavistock Classics in the History of Psychiatry series, Roy Porter¿s Introduction to this facsimile reprint of an historic book goes beyond Haslam¿s text to reveal the extraordinary psychiatric politics surrounding Matthew¿s confinement and the court case it produced, leading up to Haslam¿s dismissal from his post. Still relevant today, Haslam¿s account can be used as material upon which to base a modern diagnosis of Matthew¿s disorder.
