A Study of the Causes Underlying the Origin of Human Monsters: Third Contribution to the Study of the Pathology of Human Embryos (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
Excerpt from A Study of the Causes Underlying the Origin of Human Monsters: Third Contribution to the Study of the Pathology of Human Embryos
I wish it were possible to thank adequately the many physicians who have contributed the specimens and who have responded so generously to my many inquiries. All data obtained from them are given in quotations under the descrip tion of the specimens, which are also properly credited to the donors. Some names will be seen repeatedly, as Miller, Boldt, Lamb, Brodel, Ballard, West and Minot. In addition, I wish also to thank my colleagues at the Johns Hopkins, who have aided me in every possible way to bring together the gynecological, obstetrical, pathological and experimental embryological evidence.
In this paper all of the embryos mentioned in the two-pre vions ones are discussed, and brought together in Part II. The essence of the first contribution is given, and all of the second contribution is incorporated in this publication, so in a measure it may be viewed as a study of the whole colléc tion. However, the various steps by which I came to arrange the specimens, as I have, can be understood only by consulting the two previous publications.

Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the causes of human monsters, arguing that they result from faulty implantation of the ovum. Drawing from historical context and scientific research, the author challenges prevailing notions of maternal impressions and mechanical theories as the cause of monstrous births. Instead, the author proposes that environmental influences affect the nutrition of embryos, leading to the formation of pathological ova that manifest as monsters. The book presents a comprehensive study of 163 pathological human embryos, providing a unique perspective on the origins and development of human monsters. Its insights contribute to a deeper understanding of this fascinating and often misunderstood phenomenon in human biology. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9780282823047_0
