Péripéties genevoises de la psychiatrie légale fin-de-siècle / par Vincent Barras.
Abstract:
'In the second half of the 19th century two sensational criminal trials took place at Geneva. They lead to theoretical debates about insanity and responsibility on an international level, which reveal not only a contest for power between medicine and law; they also show us a science in making in search for reliable concepts.'

Aspects de l'histoire de la médecine, de la biologie et de la santé publique en Suisse romande. p. 485-501
