Guide

The origins of this book date back to a conference organised by Jonathan Andrews and Leslie Topp and held at Oxford Brookes University on 1315 December, 2002. The conference, entitled Space, Psyche and Psychiatry: Mental Health/Illness and the Construction and Experience of Space, 16002000, brought together most of the contributors to this volume. It sparked much friendly debate and discussion among contributors from across the disciplines (much of which took place during breaks and over beers late into the evening). By the end of the conference, the intellectual conversation that had emerged led organisers and contributors alike to suggest that an edited volume focusing on space, architecture, psychiatry and madness would make an excellent historiographical contribution.

James Moran, one of the conference speakers, joined Leslie Topp and Jonathan Andrews as co-editor of the volume in 2003. While James was visiting scholar at Oxford Brookes in July 2004, the process of editing was pushed forward by all three. Having laid important editorial groundwork for the volume, Jonathan took on other pressing commitments. The process of reviewing chapter manuscripts, and final editing was carried out by Leslie and James.
