Summary:

The History of Disabilities program provides access to primary sources written using terminology that was in common use by the medical establishment and general society at the time, and describes diagnoses, methodologies, procedures, and treatments that may no longer be used or were debunked by later research. Users may come across words and expressions describing individuals and groups that they find condescending, upsetting, disconcerting, offensive, and not acceptable today. MiFhGG

Notes:

"The last edition of the treatise on 'Stammering, cleft-palate speech, and lisping' [1907] exhausted, it has seemed desirable to revise and amplify it, adding thereto the results of my own work in carrying on the method." - Pref.
