It breaks new ground by offering unique material for a critical engagement with the phenomenon of the 'indigenisation' or 'Indianisation' of the colonial medical services and the significance of international professional networks. The work also provides a detailed assessment of the role of gender and race in this field, and of Western and culturally specific medical treatments and diagnoses. The volume offers an unprecedented look at both the local and global factors that had a strong bearing on hospital management and psychiatric treatment at this institution.Anthem Modern South Asian HistoryColonialism & Transnational PsychiatryPsychiatryIndiaHistory20th centuryPsychiatric hospitalsIndiaHistory20th centuryPsychoanalysis and colonialismIndiaPsychoanalysis and racismIndiaHistory20th centuryMedical policyGreat BritainPsychiatryHistoryPsychiatric hospitalsHistoryPsychoanalysis and colonialismPsychoanalysis and racismHistoryMedical policy362.2/10954Ernst Waltraud1955-175213UkCbUPUkCbUPBOOK9910453304603321Colonialism and transnational psychiatry2465046UNINA
