Excellent book about the relationships betweeen physician and patient over the past couple hundred years with a focus on prevailing theories of the time for treating psychosomatic problems. Some interesting accounts of how hysterectomies, psychotherapy, and psychoropic pharmacology have all been used. He presents some compelling ideas about how there has been little change in the iincidence of psychosomatic disease over the past hundred years contrary to prevailing notions.
