This open access book demonstrates that, while occupation has been
used to treat the mentally disordered since the early nineteenth
century, approaches to its use have varied across different
countries and in different time periods. Comparing how occupation
was used in French and English mental institutions between 1918 and
1939, one hundred years after the heyday of moral therapy, the book
is an essential read for those researching the history of mental
health and medicine more generally. It provides an overview of the
legislation, management structures and financial conditions that
affected mental institutions in France and England, and contributed
to their differing responses to the new theories of occupational
therapy emerging from the USA and Germany during the interwar
period.
