Kritik
"This engaging volume will be of interest to historians, interdisciplinary health researchers, policymakers, and mental health professionals alike -all who would benefit from learning about the seldom heard lessons of past endeavors. This important work will help to redress the gap in the historiography of preventive approaches to mental health that has largely been overlooked." (Verusca Calabria, H-Net Reviews Humanities and Social Sciences, networks.h-net.org, October, 2020)mehr
