Book excerpt: Excerpt from General Paresis: A Clinical Lecture I desire to call your attention to a form of mental disorder which represents one of the most clearly defined types of mental disease with which we are acquainted, and yet, at the same time, one which in its different phases calls for no mean exercise of critical acumen, namely, general paresis, or the much poorer term which should be abandoned, general paralysis of the insane. This has the lay name softening of the brain which term, however, is used, as we shall see later, to designate more than one condition.

Download or read book General Paresis Classic Reprint written by Emil Kraepelin and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-05 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from General Paresis My "Introduction to Clinical Psychiatry" having up to this time been alone translated into English, colleagues Jelliffe and Moore have now rendered accessible to English-speaking physicians a chapter from my "d104book of Psychiatry." This enterprise I hail with pleasure because, in precisely the domain here considered, the last decade has brought a series of extremely important additions to our knowledge, which are not yet included in the English edition of the "Introduction" more particularly. Although unfortunately we still find ourselves at a long distance from the solution of the paresis problem, nevertheless certain modes of enquiry and experimental possibilities are now available, arousing new anticipations in regard to a better understanding of paresis, and perhaps its improved treatment in the future. Precisely America, so greatly our superior in the ample means at her command for the pursuit of learning, would find an extensive field of scientific research in the investigation of the etiology and body metabolism, the chemical and serological problems with which we are confronted. The long standing amicable relations between German and American psychiatrists will, I trust, receive an added support through the present translation.

D., Superintendent of the Eastern Michigan Asylum, Pontiac, Mich. M topic has been suggested by the recent effort, with whiohall are familiar, to show that brain disease and consequent insanity, due to what the newspapers, with a rare but misleading delicacy, have denominated a form of blood poisoning (syphilis) are not of the nature of general paresis, or ih' other words that general paresis is never of syphilitic origin. My object this evening is to Show that such a view is not warranted by a careful clinical study of general paresis either in its symptoms or pathology.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report on General Paralysis: June 16-17-18, 1874 One must experience much of this, if not all, who after hav ing made a thorough examination of John S. Blackburn, attempts to work up the details of evidence, from it alone to gather all the facts, before he has concluded an elaborate Opinion that shall exhaust such facts and gve them due significance and place in the structure be erects; and he will feel that much is wanting that he would desire expressed. To my mind no duty 3. Medical man may be called upon to perform equals in degree of responsibility that Of the expert, and in no one thing are our medical institutions, in many ia stances, more remiss than in their failure to teach medical students how to apply their knowledge to practical purposes, and in the manner they ignore this essential branch of a col lege curriculum.

Book Dementia Pr  cox and Paraphrenia  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Dementia Pr cox and Paraphrenia Classic Reprint written by Emil Kraepelin and published by . This book was released on 2016-06-26 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Dementia Praecox and Paraphrenia AS the aim of this translation is to bring the views of Professor Kraepelin, of Munich, on dementia praecox before the English-speaking members of the medical profession who may not be intimately acquainted with German, I have made it as literal as seemed consistent with readable English. Professor Kraepelin's Psychiatry is the leading German text book on disorders of the mind, and I therefore willingly acceded to the wish of Dr George Robertson to make a complete translation of the section on dementia praecox. This special disease still requires much elucidation, and in its study medical practitioners, educationalists, and crimin ologists may well work together. It is especially on the educational side that Professor Kraepelin's observations or investigations appear to be deficient. It should not be difficult in this country to collect the required facts relating to individual cases, and to a certain extent this is being done already. When these facts are classified, much benefit should accrue to education, medical advancement, and the public welfare.

Book Pox

    Book Details:
  • Author : Deborah Hayden
  • Publisher : Basic Books
  • Release : 2008-08-04
  • ISBN : 0786724137
  • Pages : 402 pages

Download or read book Pox written by Deborah Hayden and published by Basic Books. This book was released on 2008-08-04 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Was Beethoven experiencing syphilitic euphoria when he composed "Ode to Joy"? Did van Gogh paint "Crows Over the Wheatfield" in a fit of diseased madness right before he shot himself? Was syphilis a stowaway on Columbus's return voyage to Europe? The answers to these provocative questions are likely "yes," claims Deborah Hayden in this riveting investigation of the effects of the "Pox" on the lives and works of world figures from the fifteenth through the twentieth centuries. Writing with remarkable insight and narrative flair, Hayden argues that biographers and historians have vastly underestimated the influence of what Thomas Mann called "this exhilarating yet wasting disease." Shrouded in secrecy, syphilis was accompanied by wild euphoria and suicidal depression, megalomania and paranoia, profoundly affecting sufferers' worldview, their sexual behavior and personality, and, of course, their art. Deeply informed and courageously argued, Pox has already been heralded as a major contribution to our understanding of genius, madness, and creativity.
