"fascinating...thorough and comprehensive research. Both engrossing and informative"--Against the Grain; "fascinating...a history of psychiatry, as seen through the eyes of a sociologist who has researched primary sources extensively and parlayed that data into highly readable, sometimes even poetic, prose. Everything is interesting...this book contains many fascinating factoids"--Metapsychology Online Reviews; "essays are descriptive and scholarly...Students, researchers and instructors studying the history of psychology and related fields would likely find this resource of interest. Its narrative style and documented research take this reference text beyond a simple timeline of treatments toward a turn in a direction of scholarship."--Reference Reviews.
