Publisher's Synopsis
""Anthropometry As An Aid To Mental Diagnosis"" is a book written by Edgar Arnold Doll and published in 1916. The book outlines a simple method for examining individuals with sub-normal intelligence, using physical measurements and observations to aid in the diagnosis of mental disorders. The method is based on the concept of anthropometry, which involves the study of human physical characteristics and their relationship to mental and emotional traits. The book provides detailed instructions and illustrations for conducting the examination, including measurements of the head, face, and body, as well as observations of posture, gait, and facial expressions. The author argues that this method can be a valuable tool for identifying and treating individuals with mental disorders, particularly those with sub-normal intelligence who may not be able to communicate their symptoms effectively. Overall, ""Anthropometry As An Aid To Mental Diagnosis"" is a pioneering work in the field of mental health assessment and offers a unique perspective on the relationship between physical and mental health.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
