Recenzii
“London and its Asylums breaks important new ground, introducing a new approach to the busy field of psychiatric history: the micropolitics of mental healthcare. By tackling the late-Victorian and Edwardian bureaucratic archive, Ellis adds a new layer to the story of a familiar institution.” (Leslie Topp, Victorian Studies, Vol. 64 (3), 2022)
“Ellis makes some very interesting observations … . The book is a valuable addition to the historiography of the English asylum system and management of mental illness. The different research approach of melding the evolution of asylumdom with development of local government in Victorian and Edwardian London, results in a thought-provoking work, one that should lead to other research on the topics raised.” (Alison Pedley, Journal of British Studies, Vol. 61 (1), January, 2022)

Textul de pe ultima copertă
'This is an important and timely contribution to the politics of mental health. Ellis’s forensic dissection of the politics and finance of asylums in late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century London demonstrates the evolution of asylum and mental health care but also provides a nuanced account of local government and welfare activism in this period. This book is highly recommended for those interested not only in the history of mental health care, but also the sometimes internecine conflicts which underpinned urban government in the Victorian and Edwardian eras.'
–Professor Heather Shore, Director of MCPHH, Department of History, Politics and Philosophy, Manchester Metropolitan University, UK
