Omtale

This book, first published in 1998, revisits the period in the 1940s and 1950s when tens of thousands of Americans were operated on for mental illness. By exploring the history of psychiatry as a discipline and a medical specialty, it explains why so many trusted and caring physicians believed that the procedure benefited their patients.
