  • Review Elizabeth Garrett Anderson and the Heroic First Women To
    Review Neurosciences and History 2019; 7(1): 26-40 Elizabeth Garrett Anderson and the heroic first women to access medical schools R. Belvís1, D. Momblán2 1Headache and neuralgia unit, Neurology Department. Hospital de la Santa Creu i Sant Pau, Barcelona, Spain. 2Gastrointestinal surgery department. IMDM, Hospital Clínic, Barcelona, Spain. ABSTRACT Introduction. In the 19th century the first women were allowed to receive formal medical training at universities, after a long-fought battle characterised by deception, ploys, misunderstandings, and aggression. These women had to overcome numerous hurdles before they were able to qualify and begin practice as physicians, and very few were successful. Development. This article reviews the history of women’ s inclusion in the practice of medicine from antiquity to the 19th century, and focuses on a woman who perfectly illustrates the social transgression sparked by her and her contemporaries around the world, who dared to follow their calling, medicine, in a misogynistic society. This woman, Dr Elizabeth Garrett Anderson, became the first woman to practise medicine in Great Britain after a bitter fight against the academic and medical establishment, also becoming the first woman to hold a mayor’ s office in Britain and the first to earn a doctorate in France. Garrett was a pioneer of British feminism, setting her medical prestige at the head of the women’ s suffrage movement. While she cannot be considered a neurologist, her doctoral thesis was one of the first in history to deal with migraine. We performed a comprehensive search of the MEDLINE database and on history web pages. Conclusions. Elizabeth Garrett and her contemporaries transgressed the societal norms of their day and brought about the beginning of the progressive normalisation of women’ s admission to medical schools and to universities in general.

Issues in Implementing Referendums in Israel: A Comparative Study in Direct Democracy Elizabeth Garrett* In 1994, Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin promised that any peace agreement with the Syrians, which would return some or all of the Golan Heights to Syria, would be submitted for the people's approval in a national referendum. During his campaign in 1999, Ehud Barak reiterated that commitment and promised that any final-status agreement with the Palestinians, which would affect the sovereignty of Jerusalem as well as resolve other controversial issues, would also be the subject of a referendum. During the Camp David summit in the summer of 2000, Barak negotiated as his government fell apart at home, and he stated frequently that any deal with Arafat would be ratified by a vote of the people. Before the recent outbreak of violence and election of a new prime minister in February 2001, peace agreements seemed possible in the relatively near future, so Israeli politicians turned their attention to the mechanics of a referendum vote.

  • The Road to the Nobel Prize Can Be Arduous
    From “Downsizing the Cancer Industry” by J. Morris Hicks and John Kelly, MD 10 The Road to the Nobel Prize Can Be Arduous By J. Morris Hicks I learned that courage was not the absence of fear, but the triumph over it. The brave man is not he who does not feel afraid, but he who conquers that fear. –Nelson Mandela Before Nelson Mandela was awarded the Nobel Peace Price in 1993 and elected president of South Africa in 1994, he served twenty-seven years of a life sentence in prison for conspiracy to overthrow the state. At the time of his death at the age of 95 in 2013, he was one of the best-loved and most respected individuals who ever lived. Although Dr. T. Colin Campbell has never spent a single night in jail, you could say that he has served for the last thirty years in what might be called a scientific prison. That unjust sentence was his reward for publishing dozens of peer-reviewed papers that challenged the nutritional quality of animal-based foods—that were produced by industries that contribute huge sums of money to colleges of agriculture like the one at Cornell University. As with Nelson Mandela being freed from prison and later becoming president of his country, in addition to receiving many of the world’s top honors—perhaps a similar level of long overdue recognition awaits Colin Campbell. I am one of a large group of individuals who believe that his unmatched body of work in cancer research is deserving of similar international recognition.
