""The Almosts: A Study of the Feeble-Minded"" is a book written by Helen MacMurchy in 1920. The book is a study of the feeble-minded and explores the lives of individuals who are almost, but not quite, mentally deficient. MacMurchy examines the causes of feeble-mindedness and the impact it has on the lives of those affected. The book also discusses the social implications of feeble-mindedness, including the impact on families and society as a whole. MacMurchy's study is based on her experience as a physician and her work with the feeble-minded. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of mental health and the treatment of the feeble-minded in the early 20th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
