Abstract
Nearly all the authors who have concerned themselves with puerperal psychoses have discussed the occurrence of mental illness in the families of the patients. However, as Jansson (1964) has pointed out, there exists no systematic study on the importance of hereditary factors in this disorder.Keywords
