Portraits of the insane. The case of Dr. Diamond, by Adrienne Burrows and Iwan Schumacher.

London: Quartet, 1990.

Reproduces many of Diamond's photographs of psychiatric patients. Diamond was fascinated by the possible use of photography in the treatment of mental disorders; some of his many photographs depicting the expressions of people suffering from mental disorders are particularly moving. These were used not only for record purposes, but also, he claimed in the treatment of patients - although there was little evidence of success.
