This book is an analysis of the historical evolution and contextual transformation of the disease concept 'neurasthenia' from its late 19th-century origins to its current presence in the present-day medical landscape. The author traces the term's varied meanings across psychoanalysis, psychiatry, and broader cultural contexts, including its popular usage. The book offers a comprehensive examination of the historical and intellectual contexts that have shaped understandings of neurasthenia, highlighting its significance as a historically contingent concept reflecting the zeitgeist and cultural anxieties of different eras. This work provides insights into the complex and ever-changing nature of mental illness and its relationship to cultural and social factors.
