He considers Canada?s pioneering institutional efforts at dealing with the criminally insane and why those efforts lasted only a short time, shedding new light on the debate about the nature and extent of state involvement in nineteenth-century Canadian society. Committed to the State Asylum offers new insights into the ways in which both ordinary families and the state understood and responded to those they thought had crossed the boundaries of sane behaviour. 410 0$aMcGill-Queen's/Associated Medical Services (Hannah Institute) studies in the history of medicine, health, and society ;$v10. 606 $aPsychiatric hospitals$zOntario$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aPsychiatric hospitals$zQue?bec (Province)$xHistory$y19th century 615 0$aPsychiatric hospitals$xHistory 615 0$aPsychiatric hospitals$xHistory 676 $a362.2/1/0971309034 700 $aMoran$b James E$01514909 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910829121903321 996 $aCommitted to the state asylum$94099892 997 $aUNINA
