Decent Essays

    Dr. Romash, Forever Life’s Student Walking into my orthopedic surgeon’s office has become a norm for me over the years between all of my breaks, dislocations, and sprains, but my last visit was quite different than all my previous ones.

    Some say the Civil War furthered medical intelligence, others say it prevented people from further study of the medical field. Surgeries back then were brutal and sometimes, unnecessary. Amputations, for example, existed among the army because bullets were stuck in the bones of the soldiers. Medics could not save two-thirds of wounded soldiers because they knew nothing about bacteria and the importance of sanitation. They dressed wounds with the same bandages on different people because the medics thought it would save supplies of bandages (Wegner).…

Training in forensic sciences soon satiated my ongoing want, by gaining greater insight into the cause and manner in medico-legal death investigations. This oftentimes proved by those proctored colleagues, whereas those colleagues often looked for guidance in this niche community.…

    Peculiar Medical Cases

    Ramachandran begins his book with snippets of peculiar medical cases. The stories are fascinating because the brain is fragile, yet strong; damage to a particular part of the brain can lead to the expression of an odd behavior, yet the person can remain rational. Ramachandran (1998) expresses that these type of cases usually do not get much attention from doctors (i.e., neurologists and psychiatrists) and there has not been much investigation about the causes of their behaviors (p. 2). However, he emphasizes that these unique cases help us understand the various mysteries of the brain (Ramachandran, 1998, p. 12). Ramachandran makes it seem that we are moving forward on performing experiments on people with odd behaviors and on finding out more about the brain, but is this the case today?…
