Soft cover. Condition: Good. 1st Edition. Dr Dominic Beer writes "I am so glad that Britta and Michael have given us a historical account of the management of the mentally ill on the Bexley site. The way this vulnerable part of a population is cared for (or not) has always been an issue for every society throughout history. The asylums were one way of meeting patients needs. The era of huge mental institutions serving local populations is over - in our society. this book will give the reader some valuable insights into the life of such an institution, how we can learn from its history and where we go from here". ** Although there is moisture damage to the bottom of pages 355 onwards, the book is still very much readable.**.
