""A Medico-Legal Examination Of The Case Of Charles B. Huntington: With Remarks On Moral Insanity And On The Legal Test Of Sanity"" is a book written by Chandler Robbins Gilman in 1857. The book is a detailed analysis of the case of Charles B. Huntington, who was accused of murder, and the subsequent trial that followed. Gilman, who was a physician and a lawyer, provides a comprehensive examination of the medical and legal aspects of the case, including the concept of moral insanity and the legal test of sanity. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which focuses on a specific aspect of the case. The first chapter provides an overview of the case and the circumstances that led to Huntington's arrest. The second chapter discusses the medical aspects of the case, including the symptoms and diagnosis of Huntington's mental condition. The third chapter examines the legal aspects of the case, including the legal definition of insanity and the criteria used to determine whether someone is legally sane or insane. The fourth and fifth chapters of the book are devoted to a detailed analysis of the concept of moral insanity. Gilman argues that moral insanity is a real and distinct mental condition that can lead to criminal behavior. He also discusses the legal implications of this concept and how it can be used in criminal trials. The final chapter of the book provides a summary of the case and Gilman's conclusions. He argues that Huntington was suffering from moral insanity and that he should not have been held legally responsible for his actions. The book is an important historical document that provides insight into the medical and legal thinking of the mid-19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
