PINEL (Philippe): A medical-philosophical... - Lot 166 - Richard Maison de ventes
PINEL (Philippe): A medical-philosophical treatise on insanity. Second edition, entirely recast and very enlarged. Paris, J. Ant. Brosson, 1809. One volume. 12 by 20 cm. (4)-XXXII-496 pages, + 2 folding tables and two engraved plates (complete). Contemporary half-basin, smooth spine decorated with contemporary irons, in perfect condition. A few rare stains, a small tear in a table, not missing, otherwise perfect condition. This is the work that makes PINEL the founder of modern psychiatry. He proposes among other things a classification of mental illnesses. He remains the first alienist to want to humanize the care of the mentally ill. A fundamental book in the history of psychiatry, here in a perfect copy.
