Descripci�n

Inscribed by Author. 21cm x 14cm. xvi, 215 pages. Contemporary papered boards. "In which some Suggestions are offered towards an improved Mode of treating Diseases of the Mind, and Some Rules proposed which it is hoped may lead to a more Humane and successful Method of Cure: to which are subjoined, Remarks on Medical Jurisprudence, as it relates to Diseased Intellect." The third and final revised edition of the major work by English physician Joseph Mason Cox (1763-1818). Cox was one of the first medical graduates to specialise in the treatment of the insane. Throughout his career he advocated for more humane treatment of lunatics and maniacs. In this work he introduces his swinging technique, based on a design by Erasmus Darwin, of spinning a patient's body round a vertical axis in a specially designed chair which would produce nausea, vomiting, and convulsions, but would ultimately lead to a restful slumber, which he believed to be a positive outcome for the maniacal. This copy warmly inscribed by Cox. Moderate rubbing and minor staining to boards. Pages lightly cockled. Minor foxing and soiling. Shipped Weight: Under 500 grams. Category: Psychology & Psychiatry; Antiquarian & Rare. Inscribed by Author. Inventory No: 0030271.

Descripci�n de la librer�a

The Book Merchant Jenkins is a general antiquarian bookstore in West End, Brisbane, buying and selling new, used, and rare books in all genres; specialising in niche non-fiction with a focus on Sexuality, LGBTIQ+, Ethnopharmacology, Dance, Performance, and Art. We publish a list of newly catalogued material every Wednesday, The Weekly Jenkins. This is the best way to discover our weird and wonderful books, though there are plenty more in the shop that are not on the website. When visiting our store in person you will most likely find Jenkins sitting at his desk with a pencil behind his ear cataloguing books; he will leave you to browse peacefully but be happy to answer your questions about books or help you find something you saw on the website. The Book Merchant Jenkins also conducts regular rare book auctions (around once a month). The auctions are held live in our West End store and streamed on our website with live online bidding.
