This book was released on 2019-01-29 with total page 444 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gerald N. Grob's Mental Institutions in America: Social Policy to 1875 has become a classic of American social history. Here the author continues his investigations by a study of the complex interrelationships of patients, psychiatrists, mental hospitals, and government between 1875 and World War II. Challenging the now prevalent notion that mental hospitals in this period functioned as jails, he finds that, despite their shortcomings, they provided care for people unable to survive by themselves. From a rich variety of previously unexploited sources, he shows how professional and political concerns, rather than patient needs, changed American attitudes toward mental hospitals from support to antipathy. Toward the end of the 1800s psychiatrists shifted their attention toward therapy and the mental hygiene movement and away from patient care. Concurrently, the patient population began to include more aged people and people with severe somatic disorders, whose condition recluded their caring for themselves. In probing these changes, this work clarifies a central issue of decent and humane health care. Gerald N. Grob is Professor of History at Rutgers University. Among his works are Mental Institutions in America: Social Policy to 1875 (Free Press), Edward Jarvis and the Medical World of Nineteenth-Century America (Tennessee), and The State and the Mentality III (North Carolina).

Download or read book Introduction to Mental Hygiene written by Ernest Rutherford Groves and published by . This book was released on 1930 with total page 490 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On no application of science to human needs are modern men and women more willing to stake their hopes than on mental hygiene. Mental hygiene represents a distinct purpose and viewpoint, rather than a definite sphere of science. It cuts across many of the divisions that have resulted from the study of human conduct. Of these, psychiatry, psychology and sociology yield most to the accumulating fund of mental hygiene. The authors of this book are deeply conscious of the difficulty of drawing together the various expressions of the mental hygiene movement in the effort to give it synthesis. Any such attempt must be pioneering, but in spite of great differences of opinion regarding certain aspects of mental hygiene, there now appears to be need of providing for the college student and the general reader an introduction to this movement which promises so much for individual and social welfare.
