Sobre este artículo
Berkeley: University of California Press, 1999. Book. Very Good. Trade Paperback. First. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. xi, 169pp., index, biblio., notes. "In 1906 the British colonial government of southern Nigeria began the policy of using asylums to confine Africans deemed insane. Yet, as even many in the government recognized, insanity is a condition that shows cultural variation. Who decided who was insane, and how did they make this decision? In Imperial Bedlam, Jonathan Sadowsky pursues these questions by examining archival sources, mission records, hospital publications, and patient case files.".
