First published in 2001 by La Dispute, *Travail et santé mentale* examines the historical development of occupational mental health. Drawing on industrial psychology, the author traces how work environments have shaped, and been shaped by, emerging concepts of psychopathology. The book situates early 20th‑century factory conditions within broader social and medical discourses, showing how concerns about worker well‑being evolved into systematic study and policy. By linking historical events with psychological theory, it offers readers a nuanced view of how labor practices influence mental health and how scientific perspectives have responded to those challenges.
