Book Description
Excerpt from Lectures on the Study of Fever It has long appeared to me that the student usually has a less clear idea of fever than of any disease which he meets with in the wards of the hospital. The difficulty he experiences may arise partly from the want of correspondence of the particular case before him with the description of some form of fever from which he has obtained his ideal, and partly from his not possessing the key, so to speak, to its solution in a knowledge of fever in the abstract, of its laws, and of the phenomena which are common to all types of the disease. It is true he has in the great work of Murchison the fullest and most comprehensive descriptions of every form of continued fever, but I cannot but regard these distinct treatises (for such they are) as much more likely to be useful as a future work of reference, than to serve as a guide to the early study of a complex and difficult subject like fever. The object I have had in view in delivering the ensuing Lectures to the students of the Meath Hospital, and in now publishing them, is to furnish the student with a guide to his bedside analysis of each case, by treating of febrile phenomena in succession; first, generally or abstractedly, and secondly, in their relation to each form of the disease. Thus forming in his mind an ideal of fever, such as he may readily apply to the case before him, and which he may certainly find to conform to that case, be it of what species, or how complicated soever it may.

Archive Fever
Author: Jacques Derrida
Publisher: University of Chicago Press
ISBN: 9780226143361
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 140
Book Description
As a depository of civic record and social history whose very name derives from the Greek word for town hall, the archive would seem to be a public entity, yet it is stocked with the personal, even intimate, artifacts of private lives. It is this inherent tension between public and private which inaugurates, for Derrida, an inquiry into the human impulse to preserve, through technology as well as tradition, both a historical and a psychic past. What emerges is a marvelous expansive work, engaging at once Judaic mythos, Freudian psychoanalysis, and Marxist materialism in a profound reflection on the real, the unreal, and the virtual.

Observations Upon the Natural History of Epidemic Diarrhoea
Author: O. H. Peters
Publisher: CUP Archive
ISBN:
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 206
Book Description
Excerpt from Observations Upon the Natural History of Epidemic Diarrhoea The causative agencies from which springs the plentiful harvest of child mortality in large cities may be conceived as a felted mass of rootlets almost inextricably intertwined. Those of poverty, bad housing, bad feeding, and neglect, may be severally recognized, but the extent of their interrelations with actual respiratory and alimentary disease - those to which the greater part of the mortality is referred - can be traced only with difficulty. It is the object Of this work to aid ln the labour of cutting away the matrix and entangling fibres and to lay bare the hidden ramifications of at least one important causative agency - epidemic diarrhoea. This affection - if we accept provisionally the more novel and generally favoured conception. As to its nature - is revealed as something very like an ordinary infectious disease, and one which permeates all classes, while the excessive mortality it gathers round itself in urban centres must be regarded as something superadded, owing to the vicious circle it forms with those baneful conditions of slum life mentioned above. On the other hand, its peculiarly intimate association with the circum stances of domestic life, from the continual faecal pollution of the interior of the household by infants and others, tends to make it more so than other affections of the kind peculiarly a class disease, and an especial scourge of dirty neighbourhoods. Dirty towns may however be saved from excessive mortality by a high percentage of breast feeding. A notable point in the interesting comparison that can be drawn between diarrhoea and typhoid fever is that, in accordance with their peculiarly opposite age-incidence curves, the marked and habitual depositing of infectious excreta within the household in the former disease may make the question of water-closet versus conservancy pan a matter of far less importance than in the latter.

Excerpt from Lectures on Fever: Delivered in the Memphis Medical College, in 1853-6 The student of medicine is expected to inform him self in regard to the character of the prominent hy potheses which have been published; but the natural effect upon the minds of those who are in pursuit of truth is, to impress them with the uncertainty which must ever attend upon the most able and ingenious, founded in any degree up'on assumed data. It is be cause of this unsubstantial basis that so large a num her have been promulgated upon this subject. Each has had its adherents, who were ready to subscribe to every assumption, and every dogma; and the dura. Tion of one seems to have been limited only by the appearance of another to take its place. As each in its turn has occupied the attention, and secured the confidence of the profession, it has required consider able moral courage to question its soundness but you may safely consider, that what has been written in explanation of fever hitherto is merely hypothetic; and you will do well to believe, that theories in med icine, as in other branches of science, must always be founded upon well-established facts, without which they are not entitled to confidence.
