Excerpt from The Homeopathic Journal of Obstetrics, Gynecology and Pedology, 1897, Vol. 19 I venture to make these matters of precaution emphatic, because I have seen so marked disregard Of them in the practice of many physicians; but it is unnecessary to enter upon details here. The physician is not unfrequently called to women who have received no medical attention during, or immediately succeeding, the abortive act; and to others who have been seen by a physician only after the extruded matter has been destroyed. In the first instance it was presumed by the patient and her friends that the total product of conception had been expelled, and the physician was called at last because Of hemorrhage or signs of septic infection. In the second instance, the medical attendant who was called, not having the extruded substances for examination, and finding no clear evidence of incomplete abortion, probably assumed that the uterus was empty. In such instance the time ulti mately arrived when evidence of partial retention became conclusive, and made clear the demand for some form of intervention looking to uterine clearance.

Excerpt from The Homeopathic Journal of Obstetrics Gynecology and Pedology, Vol. 18 I shall dwell first upon those cases in which fever is due to infection of the puerperal wounds. The diagnosis of septic infection is sometimes quite easy, and again it is shrouded in obscurity. The cases which are the most virulent are apt to have the fewest local symptoms upon which to base a diagnosis. In all cases of doubt it is advisable to make a visual inspection of the vulva, vagina, and cervix. Small white patches on.the raw surfaces may mark the site of infection and render the diagnosis clear. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

First Conquer Thyself: Socialization of violence and abuse is often highly structured through the Munchausen Complex. Munchausen Syndrome occurs when an individual harms themselves for attention and self-glorification. Munchausen Syndrome by Proxy is when an individual harms another, usually under their care. Attention and self-glorification are achieved through their victim's subsequent medical treatment. Munchausen Syndrome by Proxy is a crime with a victim. Violence and abuse are often common in families, passed down from one generation to the next and may be termed Transgenerational Munchausen Syndrome as these families expand and their habits are introduced into society. Munchausen Syndrome in Collective Transmission occurs when such practices become an acceptable part of society often eventuating into full acculturation. In this way societies attach themselves to self-glorification with various explanations of justification. A Mandated Report is required to be filed by health care, legal, social service and educational professionals who suspect child abuse, as well as developers of film. As socialized beings, we are often unaware why we think what we think and why we do what we do. Exploring beneath the surface, we may discover we are not who we imagine we are. Are our subtle perversions and aberrations so different from those of the ancients, or other cultures we label primitive? The author was under military orders not to discuss the subjects presented in this part's Mandated Report on child abuse to the social body for the last six years of his U.S. Navy career. Censorship is strong when one questions social norms, folkways and rituals that address issues of identity. Internal, interpersonal and professional conflicts arise.
