Migration and Mental Health Past and Present Edited by
Marjory Harper
Mental Health in Historical Perspective
Series Editors Cathy Coleborne Department of History The University of Waikato Hamilton, New Zealand Matthew Smith History of Psychiatry University of Strathclyde Glasgow, United Kingdom
Aims of the Series Covering all historical periods and geographical contexts, the series explores how mental illness has been understood, experienced, diagnosed, treated and contested. It will publish works that engage actively with contemporary debates related to mental health and, as such, will be of interest not only to historians, but also mental health professionals, patients and policy makers. With its focus on mental health, rather than just psychiatry, the series will endeavour to provide more patient-centred histories. Although this has long been an aim of health historians, it has not been realised, and this series aims to change that. The scope of the series is kept as broad as possible to attract good quality proposals about all aspects of the history of mental health from all periods.The series emphasises interdisciplinary approaches to the field of study, and encourages short titles, longer works, collections, and titles which stretch the boundaries of academic publishing in new ways.
