The book explores the early days of industry-sponsored clinical research in psychiatry. Examining how the clinic, patients, doctors, nursing staff, corporations, and authorities interacted, it reconstructs the experimental practices in a psychiatric hospital from 1940-80 whilst telling a larger story: the changing history of clinical trials. -- .
