In desperate attempts to cure their patients, physicians injected them with deadly medications, cut holes in their heads, and sterilized them. Years of insufficient funding caused the hospital to decay into a crumbling facility with too few staff, as seen in the 1975 film One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest. Today, after a $360 million makeover, Oregon State Hospital is a modern treatment hospital for the state’s civil and forensic mentally ill. In this compelling account of the institution’s tragedies and triumphs, author Diane Goeres-Gardner offers an unparalleled look at the very human story of Oregon’s historic asylum.Direct download links available for Free Inside Oregon State Hospital: A History of Tragedy and Triumph (Landmarks) [Kindle Edition]

As good as her other books....As someone who worked there from 2000 to 2008 I found the book to be pretty accurate and the pictures were awesome.
