About this ebook
Marcel Martel
Vices came to be known by different names. Although Churches, police forces, and fellow citizens continued to condemn those who transgressed “normal” behaviours, transgressions were now often diagnosed as health issues that required treatment. At the same time, those who refused the label of illness argued that behaviours formerly deemed as vices were within the normal range of human behaviour.
