An important early discussion from the formative period of psychiatry as a discrete field of insanity as a nature/nurture problem. "Johnstone intended this book originally as a chapter in a larger work on medical jurisprudence but published it separately because the trial of Hadfield earlier in the year had aroused widespread interest in the medico-legal aspects of insanity. He dealt in detail" with the issue of heredity in the dispostion to insanity. "Johnstone's opinion was that 'the maniacal disposition' which is inher ited may not only be aggravated but actually become manifest through various circumstances particularly imitation, and accordingly suggested the 'seclusion of maniacs' from society to prevent their infecting the young and impressionable. Finally he plead ed that medical evidence should be called in all criminal cases 'especially in capital offences ... if there be any doubt of sanity'" [Hunter & Macalpine p. 576].
