Derangement of the mind in regard of a single subject only;

possession] |
MONOMANIA
(bouvier) | MONOMANIA. med. jur. Insanity only upon a particular subject; and with a
single delusion of the mind.
2. The most simple form of this disorder is that in which the patient
has imbibed some single notion, contrary to common sense and to his own
experience, and which seems, and no doubt really is, dependent on errors of
sensation. It is supposed the mind in other respects retains its
intellectual powers. In order to avoid any civil act done, or criminal
responsibility incurred, it must manifestly appear that the act in question
was the effect of monomania. Cyclop. Pract. Medicine, title Soundness and
