Book Synopsis Not With a Bang But a Whimper by : Theodore Dalrymple
Download or read book Not With a Bang But a Whimper written by Theodore Dalrymple and published by Ivan R. Dee. This book was released on 2008-09-02 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Theodore Dalrymple's new book of essays follows on the extraordinary success of his earlier collections, Life at the Bottom and Our Culture, What's Left of It. No social critic today is more adept and incisive in exploring the state of our culture and the ideas that are changing our ways of life. In Not with a Bang But a Whimper, he takes the measure of our cultural decline, with special attention to Britain-its bureaucratic muddle, oppressive welfare mentality, and aimless youth-all pursued in the name of democracy and freedom. He shows how terrorism and the growing numbers of Muslim minorities have changed our public life. Also here are Mr. Dalrymple's trenchant observations on artists and ideologues, and on the questionable treatment of criminals and the mentally disturbed, his area of medical interest.

Book Synopsis Encyclopedia of Asylum Therapeutics, 1750-1950s by : Mary de Young
Download or read book Encyclopedia of Asylum Therapeutics, 1750-1950s written by Mary de Young and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2015-02-12 with total page 377 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The mentally ill have always been with us, but once confined in institutions their treatment has not always been of much interest or concern. This work makes a case for why it should be. Using published reports, studies, and personal narratives of doctors and patients, this book reveals how therapeutics have always been embedded in their particular social and historical moment, and how they have linked extant medical knowledge, practitioner skill and the expectations of patients who experienced their own disorders in different ways. Asylum therapeutics during three centuries are detailed in encyclopedic entries, including "awakening" patients with firecrackers, easing brain congestion by bleeding, extracting teeth and excising parts of the colon, dousing with water, raising or lowering body temperature, shocking with electricity or toxins, and penetrating the brain with ice picks.

Book Synopsis London and its Asylums, 1888-1914 by : Robert Ellis
Download or read book London and its Asylums, 1888-1914 written by Robert Ellis and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-05-20 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores the impact that politics had on the management of mental health care at the turn of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. 1888 and the introduction of the Local Government Act marked a turning point in which democratically elected bodies became responsible for the management of madness for the first time. With its focus on London in the period leading up to the First World War, it offers a new way to look at institutions and to consider their connections to wider issues that were facing the capital and the nation. The chapters that follow place London at the heart of international networks and debates relating to finance, welfare, architecture, scientific and medical initiatives, and the developing responses to immigrant populations. Overall, it shines a light on the relationships between mental health policies and other ideological priorities.

Book Synopsis Everything is Possible to Will by : Ellen E. Ellis
Download or read book Everything is Possible to Will written by Ellen E. Ellis and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 1882 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A semi-autobiographical novel by an early feminist New Zealand author, Ellen E. Ellis. The character Wrax is a debased version of the author's husband Oliver, and Zee a weaker version of Ellen. Ellis uses this novel as a vehicle for her views about education, marriage, birth control, prohibition, religion, and female and Maori rights. All these issues are linked to her central concern, the emancipation of women, the novel pre-empting all the central early feminist arguments. Ellis' broad contention is that women need to be emancipated in order to do their 'God-given work' which is to 'bless mankind' and 'fulfil the divine plan of the universe'. She is specific as to the three areas in which emancipation is required, protesting against the spiritual and intellectual oppression of women, the legal oppression of women, and the physical oppression of women.
