  • Jose Gregorio Hernandez: a Chameleonic Presence in the Eye of the Medical Hurricane
    Jose Gregorio Hernandez: A Chameleonic Presence in the Eye of the Medical Hurricane Francisco Ferrdndiz UniversidadAutonoma del Estado de Morelos] On several occasions, the establishment of an identification between hystenrcal states and the phenomena of supematural prayer has been attempted. In particular, saints' ecstasy, has been considered as a hysterical ecstasy;; all mystical authors, and particularly Saint Theresa [of Jesus], have been definitely situated among the hysterics by those who recognize this identification. But everyvone who wishes to calmly and scientifically studv simultaneouslv both hysteria and the psychology of saints, will find such a dissimilarity between them that they, will necessarily be lead to reach the opposite conclusion. This identification can only be admitted bv those who lack knowledge about both hvsteria or saints' ecstasy. Indeed, hysterics are sick persons who show, besides the particular symptoms of their disease, certain stigmas in their moral and physical beings, which are representative of a necessary field for the development of neurosis. Thev are imrtable, capricious, passionate; they enjoy creating a spectacle for those present. because their constant aim is to attract attention. They are timorous, and completely lack moral and physical strength; sometimes they are astute, prone to lving and obstinate. Their cognitive abilities are very limited; they are incapable of anv sustained effort of wilL they are also incapable of reflection, and they present the signs of an overwhelming intellectual inferiority, specially those who have reached ecstatic states. which. when completely established, put an end to the intelligence of the sick person who, finally, declines to idiocy ... Let us examine now the magnificent spectacle of the life of the saints; and let us choose Saint Theresa of Jesus as the most appropriate case.

  • Villanueva and Anatomy of Concrete
    Intervalolibre Villanueva and Anatomy of concrete Jorge Sánchez-Lander* - Mrs. Villanueva, when you want to ask something to the doctor, how does? -I do not ask him anything - I answered them-. Because whenever I ask him something he gives me three different solutions and I am worse than when I started. Do you know what they said? - How lucky you are! Only gives you three solutions! He gives us nearly seven! Margot en dos tiempos, retrato de una caraqueña del siglo XX, Adriana Villanueva, 2005. Born in the Consulate of Venezuela in London on May 30, 1900, Carlos Raúl Villanueva spends his early years in Europe. His academic training takes place at the Lycée Condorcet in Paris and later at the school of fine arts in the same city, where he graduated as an architect in 1928. A few months later he travelled to Venezuela to know the land which he has always considered its homeland and dedicated to his life and his work. For the beginning of the Decade of 1930, he was hired by the Ministry of public works, and within its first buildings stands the Hotel Jardín and the Maestranza of Maracay. In Caracas, it is the seat of the Museo de Bellas Artes and the Museo de Ciencias Naturales, great buildings that strengthen the desire for modernity in the capital city. After spending a few months in the school of urban planning at the University of Paris, he returned to Caracas and became part of the direction of urbanism of the Federal District in 1938, in which begins to develop a Monumental Plan of Caracas, led by the French engineer Maurice Rotival.

In 1936 the world was recovering from the devastation of World War I and, unknowing, would behoove between 1939 and 1945 suffer the most brutal armed conflict in history, World War II. On the other hand, science was overturned during that period, in large part, to help the development of weapons of mass destruction and care of the thousands of injured survivors of the war, abandoning in an alarming way, the cancer research. Between the years of 1918-1970, the fledgling fighting cancer took shape through research on the possible causes and treatment options.

On August 5, 1937, following a general trend in Europe led by the Institut Gustave Roussy in France and the Karolinska Institute in Sweden, the U.S. Congress enacted the founding of National Cancer Institute, considered one of the most important government agencies dedicated to oncology worldwide.
