TY - JOUR T1 - MEntal deficiency (amentia). Y1 - 1929/10/12 N1 - 10.1001/jama.1929.02710150064040 JO - Journal of the American Medical Association SP - 1172 EP - 1172 VL - 93 IS - 15 N2 - This volume, now in its fifth edition, largely rewritten, is one of the most popular guides for practitioners who are interested in the field of mental disturbances. The author has apparently kept abreast of recent investigations in this field, and he couples his knowledge with a tremendous experience and with extraordinary ability in expressing himself. His discussions are elaborated by good case reports, and his consideration of mental tests, of methods of procedure and of allied topics is reliable. The book should interest every physician who is at all interested in the field of mental disturbances.
