Examines the interactions between families, the legal system, and doctors involved in the regulation of deviance in nineteenth-century Montreal. Moving away from the traditional focus on institutions, this book looks at the family - rather than the state or the medical profession - as the primary site for defining a range of deviant behaviours.
