520 8  Is mental illness-- or madness-- at root an illness of the
       body, a disease of the mind, or a sickness of the soul? 
       Should those who suffer from it be secluded from society 
       or integrated more fully into it? This book explores the 
       meaning of mental illness through the successive 
       incarnations of the institution that defined it: the 
       madhouse, designed to segregate its inmates from society; 
       the lunatic asylum, which intended to restore the reason 
       of sufferers by humane treatment; and the mental hospital,
       which reduced their conditions to diseases of the brain. 
       Rarely seen photographs and illustrations drawn from the 
       archives of mental institutions in Europe and the U.S. 
       illuminate and reinforce the compelling narrative, while 
       extensive 'gallery' sections present revealing and thought
       -provoking artworks by asylum patients and other artists 
       from each era of the institution and beyond.
