This open access edited collection contributes a new dimension to
the study of mental health and psychiatry in the twentieth century.
It takes the present literature beyond the 'asylum and after'
paradigm to explore the multitude of spaces that have been
permeated by concerns about mental well-being and illness. The
chapters in this volume consciously attempt to break down
institutional walls and consider mental health through the lenses
of institutions, policy, nomenclature, art, lived experience, and
popular culture. The book adopts an international scope covering
the historical experiences of Britain, Ireland, and North America.
In accordance with this broad approach, contributions to the volume
span academic fields such as history, arts, literary studies,
sociology, and psychology, mirroring the diversity of the subject
matter. This book is available open access under a CC BY 4.0
