Including volumes originally published between 1910 and 1957, this set clearly shows the evolution of approaches to and definitions of conditions such as nervous anxiety, neuroses, hysteria, delinquency, insanity and mental illness. It provides a compelling insight into how attitudes have changed to such states during this century.
