O wen W hooley . On the Heels of Ignorance: Psychiatry and the Politics of Not Knowing
In On the Heels of Ignorance: Psychiatry and the Politics of Not Knowing, Owen Whooley offers a forceful argument that places ignorance at the center of the history of the United States psychiatric profession from its origins at the beginning of the asylum period to the present. In order to make this argument, Whooley draws on sociological studies in ignorance, and he uses this theoretical basis to forge an analysis of historical cycles in the de…

The Signal and the Noise: The Historical Epidemiology of Insanity in Ante-Bellum New Jersey
This paper argues that the historical epidemiology of mental illness is inevitably context bound. This argument is made through the analysis of civil court records relating to the mental illness of New Jersey residents from 1790 to 1867. The records demonstrate that the social contexts out of which mad behaviour emerged at a given period, and the social responses to that behaviour, could influence the incidence and prevalence of mental illness. A…
