The MacCurdy Psychopathology Library
Established from the personal books of Dr John Thomson MacCurdy, 1886-1947.
Dr MacCurdy was Cambridge University Lecture in Psychopathology from 1923-1947. In his will, he left money "for the provision and maintenance of the collection of psychopathological work." |
This wonderful specialist collection contains the principal works in psychoanalysis and psychopathology from early twentieth century.
