It reveals why the rhetorical history of the word is key to appreciating descriptions and meanings of the "manic episode." Lisa M. Hermsen examines the way medical professionals analyzed the manic condition during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries and offers the first in-depth analysis of contemporary manic autobiographies: bipolar figures who have written from within the illness itself.Bipolar disorderHistoryNeuropsychiatryHistoryBipolar disorderHistory.NeuropsychiatryHistory.616.89/5Hermsen Lisa M.1968-1701120MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910810442603321Manic minds4084645UNINA
