Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This text offers a rare, insightful glimpse into the history of psychiatry and the treatment of mental health at the end of the nineteenth century. Detailed statistical tables and case studies examine patterns in patient demographics and mental health issues, providing a valuable resource for social historians and medical doctors alike.
