John Conolly
Published in 1856, this work by John Conolly (1794–1866) describes the abolition of mechanical restraints in the treatment of mentally ill patients at the Hanwell County Asylum in Middlesex, arguing for a system of non-restraint to be introduced to all asylums. It is a key text of asylum reform.
