Life of Dorothea Lynde Dix

In the early nineteenth century, America locked its mentally ill in dungeons, chained them to walls, and left them in chains. One woman refused to look away. Dorothea Lynde Dix, a retired schoolteacher with fragile health and unshakable conviction, embarked on a crusade that would transform how a nation treated its most vulnerable. Traveling first to Europe, she studied reform movements and returned armed with knowledge that would ignite a revolution in compassion.面对强大的阻力,她坚定不移地推动立法,为精神病患者争取人道的治疗条件。This is the story of how one determined woman bent the arc of history toward mercy.
