This comprehensive collection provides a fascinating summary of the
debates on the growth of institutional care during the nineteenth
and twentieth centuries. Revising and revisiting Foucault, it looks
at the significance of ethnicity, race and gender as well as the
impact of political and cultural factors, throughout Britain and in
a colonial context. It questions historically what it means to be
mad and how, if at all, to care.
