An absorbing look at the history and development of mental health care in Britain which has emanated from Bethlem hospital—one of the country's first and mostnotorious psychiatric hospitals. The author shows how much more there is to the story of Bedlam, providing a compelling exploration of an institution which continues to fascinate today, carefully balancing the gore, depravity and madness against a touching, sensitive and often comic story.
