As well as a broad overview of the central themes and issues, the book brings together the key writings in the field since the late 19th century. Each of the extracts has been selected to ilustrate issues of contemprary interest - these include medicine and magic, sexuality, death, pyschosis, anxiety, symbols, mental disease, intoxicants, the status of normality, hysteria and suicide.
