Weir Mitchell on the topic of changes in the American style of living and nutrition. According to the author, the American society of the late 19th century became more obsessed with success and, thus, started to overlook such essential matters as nutrition and rest, both spiritual and physical. As a result of the quick tempo of life and bad food habits, the Americans started gaining weight, and it was a more obvious year after year compared to other nations, such as the English.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Wear and Tear: Or Hints for the Overworked HE rate of change in this country in edu cation, in dress, and in diet and habits of daily life surprises even the most watchful American observer. It is now but twenty-five years since this little book was written as a warning to a restless nation possessed of an en ergy tempted to its largest uses by unsurpassed opportunities. There is still need to repeat and reinforce my former remonstrance, but I em glad to add that since I first wrote on these subjects they have not only grown into impor tance as questions of public hygiene, but vast changes for the better have come about in many of our ways of living, and everywhere common sense is beginning to rule in matters of dress, diet, and education.

Download or read book S Weir Mitchell 1829 1914 written by Nancy Cervetti and published by Penn State Press. This book was released on 2015-08-21 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This modern biography provides a comprehensive and balanced view of a legendary figure in American medicine. Controversial because of his fierce fight against women’s rights, S. Weir Mitchell achieved stunning success through his experimentation with venomous snakes, treatment of Civil War soldiers with phantom limbs and burning pain, and creation of the rest cure to treat hysteria and neurasthenia. Mitchell’s life was extraordinary—interesting in its own right and as a case study in the larger inquiry into nineteenth-century medicine and culture.
Download or read book The Age of Stress written by Mark Jackson and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016-11-17 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We are living in a stressful world, yet despite our familiarity with the notion, stress remains an elusive concept. In The Age of Stress, Mark Jackson explores the history of scientific studies of stress in the modern world. In particular, he reveals how the science that legitimates and fuels current anxieties about stress has been shaped by a wide range of socio-political and cultural, as well as biological, factors: stress, he argues, is both a condition and a metaphor. In order to understand the ubiquity and impact of stress in our own times, or to explain how stress has commandeered such a central place in the modern imagination, Jackson suggests that we need to comprehend not only the evolution of the medical science and technology that has gradually uncovered the biological pathways between stress and disease in recent decades, but also the shifting social, economic, and cultural contexts that have invested that scientific knowledge with meaning and authority. In particular, he argues, we need to acknowledge the manner in which enduring concerns about the effects of stress on mental and physical health are the product of broader historical preoccupations with the preservation of personal and political, as well as physiological, stability.

Book excerpt: This book propagates a new way of thinking about managing our resources by integrating the perspectives of complex systems theory and social psychology. By resources, the authors mean objects, such as cell phones and cars, and human resources, such as family members, friends, and the small and large communities they belong to. As we all face the "replace or repair" dichotomy, readers will understand how to repair themselves, their relationships, and communities, accept the "new normal," and contribute to repairing the world. The book is offered to Zoomers, growing up in a world where it seems everything is falling apart; people in their 30s and 40s, who are thinking about how to live a fulfilling life; people from the Boomers generation, who are thinking back on life and how to repair relationships. The Reader will enjoy the intellectual adventure of connecting the natural and social worlds and understanding the transition's pathways from a "throwaway society" to a "repair society.
