It is devastating for the individual suffering from it and incomprehensible for those around him or her. This exquisite volume brings together a number of essential texts in the history of psychiatry, highlighting the changing ideas of physicians and the experience of madness. It is an invaluable aid to students in the history of psychiatry, psychology, medicine, and the humanities." -- Hans Pols * Unit for the History and Philosophy of Science, University of Sydney *"A rich and thought-provoking collection of historical sources that remind us of the limitations of our own passing perspectives on madness and mental health." -- Eric J. Engstrom * Department of History, Humboldt University, Berlin *"There is no real shortage of histories of psychiatry, but there is nothing comparable to Eghigian's compilation of key historical source texts that illuminate the changing concepts of constructs of mental disorders over time in From Madness to Mental Health." * Metapsychology *"This is an invaluable collection, highly recommended for both students and mental health researchers, as a sourcebook for ongoing study of the history of the idea of mental illness and its treatment." * Journal of Sociology and Social Welfare * Long Description From Madness to Mental Health neither glorifies nor denigrates the contributions of psychiatry, clinical psychology, and psychotherapy, but rather considers how mental disorders have historically challenged the ways in which human beings have understood and valued their bodies, minds, and souls.
