About This Item

New York: W. W. Norton & Company, 1941. First Edition. Hard Cover. Good/No Jacket. 0x0x0. First edition. Former library copy - usual marks. No jacket. Jacket flaps pasted down on front free endpaper. 1941 Hard Cover. 606 pp. "This book is the first history of medical psychology in any language. Far more than an account of doctors and their endeavors, it deals broadly with the whole development of our culture as it tells the story of man's long struggle against mental illness. The history of medical psychology and the birth and development of psychiatry require an approach entirely different from that of the history of medicine and surgery. That medicine had no power over the mentally sick was an unwritten, universally accepted dictum which was potent enough to retard the introduction of medicine into the field of mental disease."--jacket flaps. ABOUT THE AUTHOR: "Gregory Zilboorg (December 25, 1890 – September 17, 1959) was a psychoanalyst and historian of psychiatry who is remembered for situating psychiatry within a broad sociological and humanistic context in his many writings and lectures."--Wikipedia
