Publisher's Synopsis
The Insanity Of Over-Exertion Of The Brain is a book written by John Batty Tuke and published in 1894. The book explores the concept of over-exertion of the brain and its potential to cause insanity. Tuke argues that excessive mental exertion, particularly in academic or professional settings, can lead to mental breakdowns and even permanent insanity. He provides numerous case studies and examples to support his argument, and also discusses the role of genetics and other factors in the development of mental illness. The book is a significant contribution to the field of psychiatry and has been influential in shaping our understanding of the relationship between mental exertion and mental health.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
