Pan, 1997. Standard. Large Hardback. Good. Outline:- Hysteria has traditionally been seen as a female disorder but in this study of its cultural implications, the author argues that it is a universal illness and that far from dying out with the end of the Victorian sexual repression it is becoming more widespread and manifest. Showalter identifies Gulf War syndrome, recovered memory, chronic fatigue syndrome, even claims of ritual satanic abuse, as the contemporary forms of the illness and by recognizing its universality releases women from the limiting association with hysteria.-> the publisher of this LARGE HARDBACK book is Pan The date of this copy is 1997 booksalvation have grade it as Good and it will be shipped from our UK warehouse This book is from the Series.

Hardback octavo, dustjacket, very good condition (in very good dustjacket), edges lightly foxed, pages faintly toned as usual, minor edgewear. 244 pp. A daring social and psychohistory of hysteria that questions feminist orthodoxy. Tales of alien abduction, chronic fatigue syndrome, Gulf War syndrome, and the resurgence of suppressed memories in psychotherapy are just a few of the signs that we live in an age of hysterical epidemics.
