Not in Wellcome. Printed partly on light blue paper. A pioneer book which attempted to institute a moral treatment of the insane before that of the school of Leuret. The present second edition is integrated by Daquin in light of the new research carried out by Philippe Pinel (to whom this printing is dedicated) in his Traité médico-philosophique de la folie. Daquin, director of the Hôtel-Dieu in Chambéry, was a renowned philanthropist and advocate of the moral cure for madness, which he believed was decisively influenced by the phases of the moon.
