Putnam's outgoing letters concern a merger of Harvard departments of neurology and psychology, European psychiatric hospitals, establishment of a neurology ward and other matters at MGH and Harvard. They also reflect his views on such subjects as neurasthenia, psychoanalysis, and Freudian theories, alcoholism, and the Emmanuel movement and cooperation between the clergy and medical profession.
