1955acs243St. Louis: The C. V. Mosby Company 1955. Third Edition. Octavo navy blue cloth hardcover silver letters and illustration to upper cover 596 pp. Near Fine with darkened endpapers. From Preface: Since the last edition of this book was prepared many additional psychopaths have been observed pursuing their vivd patterns of maladjustment. A few encouraging reports of successful therapeutic measures have emerged. The number of patients concerned is however too small to furnish substantial evidence that a regularly effective means of dealing with the psychopath’s disorder has been discovered. It is my increasingly strong belief that the immediate and practical goal of all concerned with this problem should be to promote a general understanding that these people have a social disability that is real and extremely serious. Adequate means must be provided to control legally these severely disordered patients like those long ago provided and available today for far less incompetent patients of other types. Even if a truly curative therapy is never devised perhaps half the damage crime waste useless disorder and sorrow caused now by psychopaths could be eliminated by a reasonably wise use of such legal measures for control.

The South is particularly susceptible to confusions of fact and fiction and Nasisse makes personalized myths of 'haints' and 'boogey men'. His creations invoke images from various primitive cultures such as Haitian Voodoo Mexican and Italian votives and Mayan ritual figures. The eccentricity of some of his creations evokes the religious fervor of work by some of Nasisse's untrained artist friends like Dilmus Hall and Reverend Howard Finster or the grotesque humor of the late Nellie Mae Rowe."--Peter Morrin ; "I just take up a pencil and trace out the future of a thing."--Andy Nasisse ; scarce ; spot on inside front cover ; else FINE <br/> <br/> [Georgia] : Georgia Council for the Arts, 1985 paperback
