Born in Rumania and reared in France, Liber secured his MD from the University of Vienna and, after emigrating to the USA, a degree in Public Health. From 1904 he was a New York city psychiatrist who espoused both socialism and free thought. Written as a popularization of psychiatry for a lay audience, the present work, drawn mostly from cases in Liber's own practice, is imbued throughout with his free thought ideas and rationalist explanations. The short sections in the 1940 first edition dealing with Christian Science and the miracle cures at Lourdes (in this edition pages 311-314) elicited several spirited defenses of both, which Liber reprints in the appended chapter along with his responses.
