![]() ![]() The current technological advances have helped in producing very effective and efficient fishing techniques that have led depletion of cod fish population in Atlantic waters. “There is only one known calculation: ‘When you get to zero, it will produce zero.'” (Kurlansky 234). The author observes that the chases of revival of the code fish populace are very slim. There are serious troubles in the cod fishing industry since the Atlantic fish has been overharvested near death. The writer links this account in an interesting style while offering perfect scientific ideas. In this exciting history of a millennium -year extravaganza, Kurlansky outlines the links between cod fishing industry and past eras and experiences such as medieval Christian observances, the war between Germans and Britons over Icelandic cod, slavery, trade and decline of the roman empire as well as the development of complicated fishing industry in England. ![]()

Can this, however, justify a move to label madness ‘the female malady’? Not, surely (and contrary to what Showalter sometimes seems to suggest), in any straightforward statistical fashion. Her account makes it plain that in the psychiatric domain, as in the conventionally-defined Third World, the position and treatment of women consistently turn out to be even less enviable than those endured by men. For this reason, among many others, Elaine Showalter’s The Female Malady is to be welcomed, for its primary focus is upon this neglected group – for the most part, on female patients. It is a historiography, as David Ingleby wittily put it, ‘like the histories of colonial wars’: it tells ‘us more about the relations between the imperial powers than about the “third world” of the mental patients themselves’. ![]() ![]() ![]() Most recent work on the history of psychiatry has tended to focus on the history of institutions, of ideas, and of the psychiatric profession itself, and to ignore those for whom this vast infrastructure has (at least ostensibly) been erected. ![]() ![]() ![]() When, at sixteen, Leah was caught exchanging letters with a boy-breaking a religious ban on contact between the sexes-her family cut all ties.
