""Mental Disease and Magic"" is a book written by Lynn Thorndike that explores the relationship between mental illness and supernatural beliefs throughout history. The author examines how people in different cultures and time periods have attributed mental disorders to various magical or spiritual causes, such as demonic possession, witchcraft, or divine punishment. Thorndike draws on a wide range of sources, including medical treatises, religious texts, and folklore, to illustrate the ways in which superstition and science have intersected in the understanding and treatment of mental illness. The book also delves into the role of magic and ritual in healing practices, from ancient shamanism to contemporary alternative therapies. Overall, ""Mental Disease and Magic"" provides a fascinating and thought-provoking exploration of the complex and often paradoxical relationship between the human mind and the supernatural world.THIS 42 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: The History of Magic and Experimental Science Part 13, by Lynn Thorndike.
