Excerpt from The Gosling Case: As Illustrating and Enforcing Some of the Important Positions of the Essay on "the Problems of Insanity" Ii, in the future, as in the past, insanity is to be a measure of our civilization{ if every increase in the illuminating power of the mind is but an increase of surface to be eclipsed; if each fresh discovery or invention is to be matched by some new diseases of the nerves if insanity and its retinue of neuroses, through the cruel law of in heritance, are to be organized in families, descending in fiery streams through the generations, we have this assurance: that the same science, with keen eyes and steps that are not slow, is seeking and is finding means of prevention and relief; if not of cure. If it must yet be said of some of our asylums that they escape censure only when they escape observation; there are others, public as well as private, that are beginning to realize that they are living not only in the Nineteenth Century; but near the borders of the Twentieth, and are coming into full sympathy with the spirit of science and humanity.
