Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from American Journal of Insanity, 1859-1860, Vol. 16
I will take the liberty of applying to this phase of insanity the term Sitomania, Without, however, any design of regarding it as a distinct form of mania, but rather as a matter of convenience. To some cases the term Sitophobia will be more correct and appropri ate, and will serve to express that intense dread of food which many patients experience.
