About this product
Product Information
What has it been like to be insane? How have the mad been treated? Is madness real or is it just a label? This fascinating story of madness reveals the radically different perceptions of madness and approaches to its treatment, from antiquity to the present day. Drawing upon eyewitness accounts of doctors, writers, artists, and the mad themselves, internationally renowned academic and author, Roy Porter, explores what we really mean by 'madness', encompassing a broad and enthralling range of topics from witches to creative geniuses, electric shock therapy to sexual deviancy, and physchoanalysis to Prozac. Throughout, the book offers a balanced view, showing both the humane attempts to help the insane as well as the ridiculous and often cruel misunderstanding that have bedevilled our efforts to heal the mind of its myriad afflictions.
