Review of 'Madness and Civilization (Routledge Classics)' on 'Goodreads'

Very dense academic text but a fascinating historical study.
The way he quotes the bizarre theories 18th century doctors as statements of fact reflects on how we view science now and how we may come to view our current scientific understanding of the mind.
