Ellenberger, the Swiss medical historian, is best remembered today as the author of The Discovery of the Unconscious (1970), a brilliant, encyclopedic study of psychiatric theory and therapy from primitive times to the mid-twentieth century. However, in addition to this well-known work, Ellenberger has written over thirty essays in the his "Micale ... deserves our thanks for this labor of love.... It could almost stand alone as a general introduction to the historiography of psychiatry in the past twenty-five years.
