Download or read book World War II written by Louis August Gottschalk and published by Nova Publishers. This book was released on 2004 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a unique book for two reasons: it focuses on neuropsychiatric casualties of war, a topic that has traditionally been avoided in the media and documentary literature; and, it is based on the personal observations of a single person, the author, who served as a military neuropsychiatrist at the United States Public Health Service Hospital in Fort Worth, Texas from 1944 to 1946, where he personally diagnosed and treated over 1500 neuropsychiatric patients. The development of a mental disorder triggered by the stress of military service, is often regarded publicly as a shameful event, not only for the patient but also for his or her family. On the other hand, getting killed or injured during military action is usually considered praiseworthy and honourable. The book describes some of the diverse stressors experienced by neuropsychiatric patients ranging from the quality of life in a submarine undergoing depth bombing, the exposure to suicidal fighters attacking their battleship, to the experiences of going on repeated bombing missions while coping with diverse enemy defences. For some new enlistees, only the initial regimentation in a boot camp was sufficient to produce a mental breakdown. The emotional pains and sufferings of these mentally disturbed patients raise the question why do human beings have wars in the first place? Each of the deadly opponents believes that their God favours their violent intentions on their enemy. All of these mentally disordered patients were taught as infants and children to nurture and protect one another and during this war, as in all wars, their job description was to defeat and destroy others. The author suggests that a mental disorder, in such a conflicted and chaotic world, should not be surprising. The resultant covering up and association with shame reveal that the proclivity of humans beings to violent disagreements and fatal battles are genetic predispositions which are as strong as their inborn and learned altruistic virtues of caring and loving.

Download or read book Principles Practices and Positions in Neuropsychiatric Research written by Joseph V. Brady and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2013-10-22 with total page 424 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Principles, Practices and Positions in Neuropsychiatric Research contains the proceedings of a conference held in June 1970 at the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research, Washington, D.C., in tribute to Dr. David McKenzie Rioch upon his retirement as Director of the Neuropsychiatry Division of that institute. This book is composed of the original contributions presented at the conference, as well as several invited papers that could not be programmed at the meeting because of certain limitations. Topics covered in some papers focus on anatomy of the thalamus; glia-neuronal interaction; receptor characteristics and conduction velocities in bladder afferents; responses of photoreceptors; and specificity of responses of cells in the visual cortex. This text also discusses the channeling of responses elicited by hypothalamic stimulation; neurochemistry of reward and punishment; behavioral analysis of aphasia; and biology of sleep. The military psychiatry and changing systems of mental health care, as well as psychological issues in training for research in psychiatry are also addressed. The contributions in this book will serve to reflect the remarkable range of bio-social research interest and competence.

Download or read book Human Adaptation to Extreme Stress written by John P. Wilson and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 407 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is one additional indication that a new field of study is emerging within the social sciences, if it has not emerged already. Here is a sampling of the fruit of a field whose roots can be traced to the earliest medical writings in Kahun Papyrus in 1900 B.C. In this document, according to Ilza Veith, the earliest medical scholars described what was later identified as hysteria. This description was long before the 1870s and 1880s when Char cot speculated on the etiology of hysteria and well before the first use of the term traumatic neurosis at the turn of this Century. Traumatic stress studies is the investigation of the immediate and long-term psychosocial consequences of highly stressful events and the factors that affect those consequences. This definition includes three primary elements: event, conse quences, and causal factors affecting the perception of both. This collection of papers addresses all three elements and collectively contributes to our understanding and appreciation of the struggles of those who have en dured so much, often with little recognition of their experiences.
