'Insanity and Criminal Law' is a classic treatise on how criminals can be deemed insane and how the law treats the ’criminally insane', by William A. White. This fascination volume will appeal to those with an interest in criminal law and its history, as well as psychology and its relationship with the law. William Alanson White (870 - 1937) was an American neurologist and psychiatrist. Other notable works by this author include: 'Mental Mechanisms' (1911), 'Outlines of Psychiatry' (1915), and 'Diseases of the Nervous System' (1915). Contents include: 'Crime', 'The Criminal', 'The Growing Tendency to Individualize the Criminal', 'Expert Testimony', 'Prejudice', 'The Hypothetical Question', 'Responsibility', 'The Tests of Insanity', 'A Character of Blunders', etc. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new biography of the author.
