'This short book on European insanity and its treatment in the British Raj is a welcome addition to the growing corpus of writing on the encounter between Western medicine and indigenous societies.' --Social History of Medicine
‘Mad Tales from the Raj’ is an authoritative assessment of western psychiatry within the context of British colonialism. This revised version provides a comprehensive study of official attitudes and practices in relation to both Indian and European patients during the dominance of the British East India Company. It is fascinating reading not only to students of colonial history, medical sociology and related disciplines, but to all those with a general interest in life in the colonies.
