This book provides an in-depth case study of a psychiatric institution within the context of colonial rule during the early twentieth century. It focuses on patient statistics, medical treatments and diagnoses, and considers the 'indigenisation' or 'Indianisation' of the colonial medical services and the significance of international professional networks.
