SYNOPSIS
A study that examines writings by African patients in asylums and the reports of officials, doctors, and others to discuss the meaning of madness in Nigeria, the development of colonial psychiatry, and the connections between them. It shows how contradictions inherent in colonialism were articulated in both asylum policy and psychiatric theory.
