| Description | The Mental Health collection consists of 45 volumes dating from 1867 to 1948. Reports describe lunatic asylums and mental hospitals in British India, revealing institutional conditions and care of native and European patients. Statistics show changes in classification of causes and types of insanity, and allow analysis of asylum populations. |
