Hegel offers a cursory description of thought disorder and insanity (EG §§ 403–408, especially see the Zusatze), however, a critical discussion of his contributions is beyond the scope of this immediate project. For a more detailed analysis of Hegel's theory of abnormal psychology, see Berthold-Bond's Hegel's Theory of Madness (Albany: SUNY Press, 1995).
