The Causes of Origin of Heart Disease and Aneurism in the Army
Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the origins of heart disease and aneurisms found in the military, arguing that the excessive amounts and specific characteristics of these conditions in soldiers compared to civilians is due to functional derangement of the heart resulting from the conditions of military life. The author's extensive research and clinical evidence provided by army medical reports show that this functional derangement is not caused by syphilis, external factors like dress and equipment, or direct physical exertion but rather by mental influences related to military discipline. The author provides a detailed investigation into the mechanical and psychological factors that produce this derangement and its various outcomes, contributing to our understanding of the impact of military life on the health of its members.
