Under the term Old-Time Medicine most people probably think at once of Greek medicine, since that developed in what we have called ancient history, and is farthest away from us in date. As a matter of fact, however, much more is known about Greek medical writers than those of any other period except the last century or two.
To TEACH LEARNERS those organic conditions which indicate character, is the first object of this manual; and in order to render it accessible to all, it condenses facts and conditions, rather than elaborates arguments-because to EXPOUND Phrenology is its highest proof-states laws and results, and leaves them upon their naked merits; embodies recent discoveries; and crowds into the fewest possible words and pages just what learners need to know; and, hence, requires to be STUDIED rather than merely read. "Short, yet clear," is its motto. Its numerous illustrative engravings give the results of very extensive professional observations and experience. Large print 15 point font.
The successful treatment of obesity from a European doctor in the early 1900s. With the USA now under a pandemic of obesity problems, perhaps it is time to study the methods proven successful in the past.
This book is a reprint of TGS Alternative/Survival Health books. The book is written primarily for the lay reader. Hence, whenever a surmise is made or an unproved theory advanced, the attitude of the mind of the author regarding it is plainly displayed. Likewise, whenever absolute harmony has been accomplished between theory and fact, no doubt is permitted the reader in statements of truth discovered.
These studies have been published in various journals at different times. They are reprinted together because there is some demand for them, and they are not easily accessible. In preparing them for publication in the present form, some of them have been expanded and all of them have been revised.
A study into human sexual anomolies not considered 'normal' by most people.
The fact of sexual need in man and animal is expressed in biology by the assumption of a "sexual impulse." This impulse is made analogous to the impulse of taking nourishment, and to hunger. The sexual expression corresponding to hunger not being found colloquilly, science uses the expression "libido."
The present decade has experienced an intense interest in mental healing. This has come as a culmination of the development along these lines during the past half century. It has shown itself in the beginning of new religious sects with this as a, or the, fundamental tenet, in more wide-spread general movements, and in the scientific study and application of the principles underlying this form of therapeutics.
Virility is the Achilles heel of manhood, thus the emphasis on modern day drugs (and poisons and quackery) for man 'standing up' for sex. From 1900, MacFadden brings back the importance of health in maintaining virility.
For some years I have been using with success, in private and in hospital practice, certain methods of renewing the vitality of feeble people by a combination of entire rest and excessive feeding, made possible by passive exercise obtained through the steady use of massage and electricity.
A plea from an androgyne to the public to understand their predicament, and stop the unwarranted persecution by homophobes and the church, since this is an anomaly that happened in the womb or at birth. In today's world we are discovering that pollution and drugs are causing gender-bending in the psychology, biology, and anatomy of both men and women. Fake milk sold to families in the 1950s to replace breast milk cross-wired neuropathic lines and changed many women into lesbians. Water pollution is cross gendering men psychologically and giving them women's breasts. The church including the Mormons and their illiterate minions should be attacking the source of these problems, not the victims.
IT has been well said that the bulwarks of a nation are the mothers. Any contribution to the physical, and hence the mental, perfection of woman should be welcomed alike by her own sex, by the thoughtful citizen, by the political economist, and by the hygienist. Observation of the truths, expressed in a modest, pleasing, and conclusive manner, in the essay of Dr. Galbraith contribute to this end. These truths should be known by every woman, and I gladly commend the essay to their thoughtful consideration.
Throughout the pages of this little book have been scattered crumbs of teaching other than those concerning the aura alone. Those for whom these are intended will recognize and appropriate them--the others will not see them, and will pass them by. One attracts his own to him. Much seed must fall on waste places in order that here and there a grain will find lodgment in rich soil awaiting its coming. True occult knowledge is practical power and strength.
Havelock Ellis was a man, doctor, researcher, and author-- before his time. He taught what was at the time revolutionary ideas for sex and sex relationships.
A study of our sexual life from science, medicine, history, psychology, and actual practice. The sex drive dominates our existence for nearly all our lives, yet is the one mystery yet explained away by religion or science.
