Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book tells the story of the evolution of the humane treatment of the mentally ill. The author contrasts the cruel and primitive practices that dominated care for the insane between the 18th and 19th centuries with the development of moral treatment epitomized by figures like the…Quaker William Tuke, French physician Pinel, and English physician Conolly. Asylums evolved from prisons to hospitals, with mechanical restraints such as chains and straitjackets falling out of use in favor of kindness and compassion. However, the author notes a worrying trend of backsliding into the failed strategies of the past as county asylums grow larger and more impersonal, leading to overcrowding and neglect. The author argues that the true hospitals for the mentally ill should be small, homelike, and integrated with the wider community, allowing for patients to have dignity, privacy, and a genuine chance at recovery. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
