A great work,

This review is from: The History of Shock Treatment (Paperback)
Leonard has conscientiously put together a vast collection of information of the history of shock treatment. It starts with precursors of shock treatment, including the now discarded insulin coma shock treatment and continues to when he wrote it.
Included are numerous copies of drawings, photos, quotes, advertisements, newspaper articles, extracts from books and magazines, first hand reports etc. in all a vast and comphrehensive range of primary sources. He makes no secret of what he thinks of the "treatment" and when you read the book you will see why. Fascinating reading, essential reading for anyone involved or interested in shock treatment in any way.

A Classic,
By A Customer
This review is from: The History of Shock Treatment (Paperback)
A must read from a real survivor. Facts, facts and more facts about a barbaric procedure compiled by a brave soul who got severely punished by this so-called "treatment" because he decided to become a vegetarian and a reader of good books as a young man. His parents were horrified and managed to get him committed to an institution.
