  • A History of the Brain: from Stone Age Surgery to Modern Neuroscience/Andrew P
    A HISTORY OF THE BRAIN A History of the Brain tells the full story of neuroscience, from antiquity to the present day. It describes how we have come to understand the biological nature of the brain, beginning in prehistoric times, and the progress to the twentieth century with the development of modern neuroscience. This is the first time a history of the brain has been written in a narrative way, emphasising how our understanding of the brain and nervous system has developed over time, with the development of a number of disciplines including anatomy, pharmacology, physiology, psychology and neurosurgery. The book covers: • beliefs about the brain in ancient Egypt, Greece and Rome • the Medieval period, Renaissance and Enlightenment • the 19th century • the most important advances in the 21st century and future directions in neuroscience. The discoveries leading to the development of modern neuroscience have given rise to one of the most exciting and fascinating stories in the whole of science. Written for readers with no prior knowledge of the brain or history, the book will delight students, and will also be of great interest to researchers and lecturers with an interest in understanding how we have arrived at our present knowledge of the brain. Andrew P. Wickens is Senior Lecturer in Psychology and Neuroscience at the University of Central Lancashire, UK. His main area of expertise is in biological psychology and neuroscience.

  • Kränkung and Erkrankung: Sexual Trauma Before 1895
    Med. Hist. (2019), vol. 63(4), pp. 411–434. c The Author 2019. Published by Cambridge University Press 2019 doi:10.1017/mdh.2019.42 Krankung¨ and Erkrankung: Sexual Trauma before 1895 DIEDERIK F. JANSSEN* Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences, Maastricht University (external PhD programme), The Netherlands Abstract: A tropology of moral injury and corruption long framed the plight of the sex crime victim. Nineteenth-century psychiatric acknowledgment of adverse sexual experience reflected general trends in etiological thought, especially on ‘epileptic’ and hysteric seizures, but on the whole remained descriptive, guarded and limited. Various experiential threats to the modern sexual self beyond assault and rape were granted etiological significance, however: illegitimate motherhood, masturbatory guilt, sexual enlightenment, ‘homosexual seduction’ and chance encounters leading to fetishistic fixation. These minor early appeals to medical psychology help us appreciate the multiple nuances of ‘sexual trauma’ advanced in Breuer and Freud’s Studies on Hysteria (1895) and Freud’s subsequent work. Keywords: Sexual trauma, Nineteenth century, History of psychiatry, Rape, Sexual abuse, Victimology A psychiatric parlance of sexual trauma is first attested in Breuer and Freud’s Studien uber¨ Hysterie (1895). Here the reifying expression carried divergent theoretical ambitions: Freud’s sexuelle Traumen referred to childhood experiences attaining ‘traumatic power’ as later memories (causing hysterical anxiety), while Breuer’s sexuale Traumen referred to

    HISTORICAL REVIEW Copyright ©2014 t he Canadian Journal of neurologiCal SCienCeS inC . A History of Multiple Sclerosis Investigations in Canada Between 1850 and 1950 Aravind Ganesh, Frank W. Stahnisch ABSTRACT: the medical profession’s modern quandaries with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) largely began in 1849, with friedrich von frerichs’ (1819-1885) early description of the clinical and pathological features of what he termed Hirnsklerose (“brain sclerosis”). this manuscript is an overview of the century of research (1850-1950) that followed the emergence of this clinical entity, with a focus on the hitherto under-explored english Canadian perspective. using journal articles, reviews, and case studies, this historiographical paper reviews what may be some of the earliest recorded cases of MS in Canada, and outlines the diagnostic challenges that confronted early Canadian physicians in their encounters with MS. early Canadian attempts to characterize the aetiology and epidemiology of MS and treat it are also discussed. these activities were influenced by developments in the field in europe and the united States, and helped set the stage for the modern era of immunologic and therapeutic research on MS. RÉSUMÉ: Histoire de la recherche sur la sclérose en plaques au Canada entre 1850 et 1950. les dilemmes rencontrés par la profession médicale concernant la sclérose en plaques (Sp) sont connus depuis 1849, suite à la description initiale faite par friedrich von frerichs (1819-1885) des manifestations cliniques et pathologiques de ce qu’il a appelé l’ Hirnsklerose (« sclérose du cerveau »). nous présentons un survol de la recherche effectuée de 1850 à 1950 suite à cette description clinique de la maladie et nous mettons l’accent sur la perspective du Canada anglais, ce qui n’a beaucoup été étudié à ce jour.
