The Invisible Plague
The prevalence of insanity, which was once considerably less than one case per 1,000 total population, has risen beyond five cases in 1,000. Why has insanity reached epidemic proportions? What are the causes of severe mental illness? This book examines the records on insanity in England, Ireland, Canada, and United States over a 250-year period.
