A variety of topics are presented in this book that seek to reflect
on medical history before and after the golden age of the Medical
Renaissance. These topics include newborn care, the story of
adolescence, behavioral pediatrics, psychopharmacology, substance
abuse, psychodermatology, the story of diabetes mellitus, specific
organ systems that range from the lungs, gastrointestinal tract,
kidney and the heart in pediatrics, and other motifs. Reflections
on adolescence are provided based on societys classic disdain and
envy of its youth seen throughout the ages of human life. In this
book, the authors include a variety of scholars, who stood on the
shoulders of giants and made exponential progress in medicine of
their own. Throughout the centuries, from the Mesopotamian masters
to present physicians, these giants advanced the field of medicine
to represent what has been understood as the standard of current
medical care, and perhaps we can learn what it will be like in the
future. These esteemed experts learned from the past, made
mistakes, exhibited amazing courage, and faced scientific and
sometimes sacerdotal criticism. Their courage was astonishing, as
many were confronted by minacious, inauspicious, portentous, and
unpropitious attacks on their ethics and accomplishments. However,
they persisted and were able to develop verifiable data that others
could independently substantiate and sometimes improve upon for the
benefit of all humans. This book celebrates their astounding,
awe-inspiring achievements.
