Abstract:
Including volumes originally published between 1910 and 1957, the Abnormal and Clinical Psychology set of the International Library of Psychology 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 to such states have changed during this century. Other subjects covered include psychotherapy with children, personality, abnormal psychology, the relationship between brain and personality and psychotic art.
