Biografie
George Edward Shuttleworth received his medical education at King's College Hospital Medical School, and obtained his MD degree at Heidelberg in 1869. After a short period at Earlswood Asylum, he was appointed Superintendent of the Royal Albert Asylum at Lancaster in 1870, a post which he held for twenty-three years. On retirement in 1893, he devoted himself to the study of insanity, and was particularly interested in the problems of mentally-defective children and their treatment. His important work on that subject was published in 1895, and a fifth edition appeared in 1922. As consultant in London, he was active in the training of personnel for service with the care of these unfortunate children, and was responsible for important changes in the lunacy laws.
