A historical curiosity
Perhaps of little relevance to the student of psychology, the case studies herein are useful for research into history and aspects often neglected by noble-minded historians. A glimpse of raw life of the poor and hapless can be seen here.

Hutchensonioan teeth? Epilepsy? Prone to masturbation? This outdated laugh if a psychoanalysis tome has your number. Extra star for the unintentional humor.

Illustrates motives and reasonings quite well. Too many "cases" which have similar subjects, which gets a bit repetitive.
