  • Morgellons: an Exercise in Medical Validation Introduction
    Harry Quinn Schone Morgellons: an exercise in medical validation Introduction Morgellons may or may not be a modern affliction, but the circumstances in which it exists are distinctly specific to the 21st century.1 The existing literature is both sparse and voluminous. Medical journal work is lacking, whilst patient­written material stretches all over the internet.2 Almost totally absent is an academic effort which tries to document what has happened from a social constructivist position, taking account of both accredited literature and otherwise. In the following piece I hope to go some way towards filling this gap, and so I will now briefly outline my point of view. I do not believe it is necessary to engage in complex and often circular debates about aetiology. Remove this dangerous temptation and what is left is the processes: who is made to feel how and by what means; what makes a ‘disease’, what is ‘medical authority’ and how does it exercise said authority? These are the questions I hope to answer. Neutrality is impossible, but hopefully by aiming towards it I can achieve something close to meaningful analysis as a byproduct of such efforts. To this end I have attempted to regard both academic and non­academic sources as valuable. ‘Sticking to the literature’ in this case would I believe prove myopic and do a disservice to the heterogeneity of the actors involved. In short, I am not concerned so much with the symptoms and the various causal debates, but rather with the way that Morgellons illustrates power structures between patients and the medical community.

  • Healing with Magnets by Gary Null, Ph.D
    Healing With Magnets By Gary Null, Ph.D. With Vicki Riba Koestler Biomagnetic therapy is not a new to everyone. Many veterinarians have been aware of biomagnetic benefits for years, and use magnets to heal fractures quickly, thereby saving the lives of racehorses and other animals. Doctors treating professional athletes commonly recommend magnets to speed up recovery from painful injuries. And other physicians in a variety of specialties, including dermatologists, internists, pediatricians, and surgeons, are seeing excellent results as well That magnetic healing is nothing new can be seen by looking at early records of scientifically advanced civilizations, which tell us that magnetic forces have long been prized for their restorative properties. Ancient Greece discovered the very first natural magnet in the form of the lodestone, said Hippocrates, the father of medicine, noted its healing power. The Egyptians, too, described the divine powers of the magnet in their writings, and Cleopatra frequently adorned herself with magnetic jewelry to preserve her youthfulness. Chinese manuscripts dating back thousands of years describe the Eastern belief that the life force, termed qi , is generated by the earth’s magnetic field. Today, many believe that certain places on earth, such as Lourdes, France, and Sedona, Arizona, owe their healing powers to naturally high levels of this qi , or biomagnetic energy. Finally, no one claims that magnetic therapy is going to work for everyone. However, ample clinical and personal evidence suggests that people experience a beneficial effect. One is led to ponder whether when Hippocrates wrote, “The natural force within each of us is that greatest healer of all,” he did not have magnetic energy in mind.

  • Lincoln's Orgone Accumulator
    Journal of the Centre for Experimental Ontology Lincoln’s Orgone Accumulator: The Question Concerning Life and Architecture by Marcin Mateusz Kołakowski & Doina Carter Are the controversial ideas of Wilhelm Reich a topic worth discussing in contemporary architecture? There is no better way of trying to answer this question than by testing it. This is what happened at the University of Lincoln in 2017. The Centre for Experimental Ontology offered support and the initial concept while authors of this article, as architectural educators from Lincoln School of Architecture and the Built Environment (LSABE), incorporated it into students’ brief. 1 Live Projects for Life of Architecture. As a result of the cooperation between the Centre of Experimental Ontology and the LSABE, the idea of constructing Lincoln’s Orgone Accumulator came into being. The object, which once contributed to scientific and even legal controversies later became part of pop culture and is now something of a techno-vitalist legend which stimulates thinkers to reflect on the definition of life. The Lincoln project was instigated by Graham Freestone and transformed into an idea compatible with the University’s curriculum. It was decided that the process of designing and producing the project would take the form of a ‘live project’. According to definitions by Sara (2006) and Watt & Cottrell (2006), live projects in educational terms engage the community with students. Through live projects students produce a real project which is valuable to the client. Every project has its own agenda and criteria making them very different from each other. For several years, the University of Lincoln ‘Students as producers’ program has helped to promote this kind of educational format.

  • Unconventional Cancer Treatments
    Unconventional Cancer Treatments September 1990 OTA-H-405 NTIS order #PB91-104893 Recommended Citation: U.S. Congress, Office of Technology Assessment, Unconventional Cancer Treatments, OTA-H-405 (Washington, DC: U.S. Government Printing Office, September 1990). For sale by the Superintendent of Documents U.S. Government Printing OffIce, Washington, DC 20402-9325 (order form can be found in the back of this report) Foreword A diagnosis of cancer can transform abruptly the lives of patients and those around them, as individuals attempt to cope with the changed circumstances of their lives and the strong emotions evoked by the disease. While mainstream medicine can improve the prospects for long-term survival for about half of the approximately one million Americans diagnosed with cancer each year, the rest will die of their disease within a few years. There remains a degree of uncertainty and desperation associated with “facing the odds” in cancer treatment. To thousands of patients, mainstream medicine’s role in cancer treatment is not sufficient. Instead, they seek to supplement or supplant conventional cancer treatments with a variety of treatments that exist outside, at varying distances from, the bounds of mainstream medical research and practice. The range is broad—from supportive psychological approaches used as adjuncts to standard treatments, to a variety of practices that reject the norms of mainstream medical practice. To many patients, the attractiveness of such unconventional cancer treatments may stem in part from the acknowledged inadequacies of current medically-accepted treatments, and from the too frequent inattention of mainstream medical research and practice to the wider dimensions of a cancer patient’s concerns.

  • 119 Review Article Health and Healing in Islam: Links and Gaps With
    Bangladesh Journal of Medical Science Vol. 14 No. 02 April’15 Review article Health and healing in Islam: links and gaps with (post)modern practices Rahman MT Abstract: Therapeutic interventions deal with healthy living i.e., maintenance of good health, dealing with conditions that requires special care such as child birth and healing i.e., treatment and cure of the sickness. Islam guides mankind to have ultimate faith on Allah Almighty’s approval for healthy living and healing as well as provides guidelines for cleanliness, healthy eating/drinking habits and controlled physical and mental stress. Thus, holistic view of healthy living and healing in Islam is founded both on the faith on the oneness and the almighty authority of Allah as well as physical, social, psychological factors. Revealed scriptures before Qur`an, gave equal emphasis on the same faith and factors. At the same time, different schools of thought of therapeutic interventions deal either with the physical or the metaphysical means of health and healing. This paper will discuss the links and gaps between Islamic principles and practices for health and healing and similar practices in other faith and therapeutic interventions observed in (post)modern community. Keywords: healthy living; health and healing in Islam; modern medicine; integrative medicine DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/bjms.v14i2.21808 Bangladesh Journal of Medical Science Vol.14(2) 2015 p.119-129 Introduction mankind has adopted changes hence persuaded Therapeutic interventions deal with the prevention, modified life-style compared to that of 15/20 century treatment and cure of the sickness as well as guide earlier.

Bray BASc MSc MD FCFP MHSc Medical Director, Women’s College Hospital, Environmental Health Clinic Assistant professor, Department of Family and Community Medicine and Dalla Lana School of Public Health, University of Toronto. Environmental Health Clinic The Environmental Health Clinic is a unique multidisciplinary clinic, and the only one of its kind in Ontario. It was established in 1996 by the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care to be a provincial resource in promoting environmental health, and to improve health care for people with environment-linked conditions such as chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia and environmental sensitivities (CMI – Chronic Multisystem Illnesses). The Environmental Health Clinic is a program run through Women's College Hospital and the Faculty of Medicine, University of Toronto. BACKGROUND • Patient demographics – mean age approximately 50 years old and 80% are women. Women seem to be statistically more sensitive to EMF than men, as they are to chemicals. • Gaps in knowledge and understanding in the medical community and the general public about how this technology works and the health impacts. • Large gaps in research in this area, especially in North America.

  • William S. Burroughs Reading Wilhelm Reich
    humanities Article Genius and Genitality: William S. Burroughs Reading Wilhelm Reich Thomas Antonic Department of German Studies (Institut für Germanistik), University of Vienna, A1010 Vienna, Austria; [email protected] Received: 15 January 2019; Accepted: 16 May 2019; Published: 21 May 2019 Abstract: This article explores the impact of Wilhelm Reich’s theories and writings on the works and thinking of William S. Burroughs. Reich’s significance for Burroughs’ fiction is beyond doubt, as the appearance of Reich’s discoveries and inventions, such as orgones and orgone accumulators, in Burroughs’ major works demonstrates. Yet to date, no attempt has been made in academia to make all those references to Reich in Burroughs’ complete œuvre visible. In order to make the thinking of the Austrian-American psychoanalyst and scientist comprehensible for readers not familiar with Reich, the first section will provide a brief biographical outline. In the subsequent sections, the article will describe how Burroughs and other Beat writers discovered Reich, how and to what extent Burroughs incorporated Reich in his texts throughout his career and what opinions Burroughs expressed about Reich in interviews and letters. For the first time, with a summary as undertaken in this article and by documenting most of the references to Reich in Burroughs’ work, the importance of the former to the latter is revealed in a compact form. Keywords: William S. Burroughs; Wilhelm Reich; beat generation; orgone 1. Introduction At some point, readers familiar with Beat literature have certainly come across the name of Wilhelm Reich or references to one of his discoveries and inventions in books by or about the Beat Generation.
