The great 17th century philosopher, John Locke, moved from the absolutist position of Hobbes to the Whig theory so congenial to our Founders. Like Aristotle his interests were scientific as well as political. Next comes the age of the Democratic Revolution.
Chapter 2For thousands of seekers and adventurers, America in EstelaJeffery653
Chapter 2
For thousands of seekers and adventurers, America in the seventeenth century was a vast unknown land of new beginnings and new opportunities. The English settlers who poured into coastal America and the Caribbean islands found not a “virgin land” of uninhabited wilderness but a developed region populated by Native Americans. As was true in New Spain and New France, European diseases such as smallpox overwhelmed the Indians and wiped out whole societies. William Bradford of the Plymouth colony in Massachusetts reported that the Indians “fell sick of the smallpox, and died most miserably... like rotten sheep.”
Native Americans dealt with Europeans in different ways. Many resisted, others retreated, and still others developed thriving trade relationships with the newcomers. In some areas, land-hungry colonists quickly displaced or decimated the Indians. In others, Indians found ways to live in cooperation with English settlers—if they were willing to adopt the English way of life.
After creating the Virginia, Maryland, and New England colonies, the English would go on to conquer Dutch-controlled New Netherland, settle Carolina, and eventually establish the rest of the thirteen original American mainland colonies. The diverse English colonies had one thing in common: To one extent or another, they all took part in the enslavement of other peoples, either Native Americans or Africans or both. Slavery, common throughout the world in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, enriched a few, corrupted many, and compromised the American dream of equal opportunity for all.
The English Background
Over the centuries, the island nation of England had developed political practices and governing principles similar to those on the continent of Europe—but with key differences. European societies were tightly controlled hierarchies. From birth, people learned their place in the social order. Commoners bowed to priests, priests bowed to bishops, peasants pledged their loyalty to landowners, and nobles knelt before the monarchs, who claimed God had given them absolute power to rule over their domain.
Since the thirteenth century, however, English monarchs had shared power with the nobility and with a lesser aristocracy, the gentry. England’s tradition of parliamentary monarchy began with the Magna Carta (Great Charter) of 1215, a statement of fundamental rights and liberties that nobles forced the king to approve. The Magna Carta established that England would be a nation ruled by laws. Everyone was equal before the law, and no one was above it.
The people’s representatives formed the national legislature known as Parliament, which comprised the hereditary and appointed members of the House of Lords and the elected members of the House of Commons. The most important power allocated to Parliament was the authority to impose taxes. By controlling tax revenue, the legislature exercised leverage over the monarchy.

Lung Cancer: Artificial Intelligence, Synergetics, Complex System Analysis, S...Oleg Kshivets
RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.
Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection

Restraint to Recovery: Asylum to Acceptance
1. RESTRAINT TO RECOVERY – ASYLUM TO ACCEPTANCE
FROM
WILLOWBURN LUNATIC
ASYLUM
TO
BAILLIE HENDERSON
HOSPITAL
1890 – 2010
Prepared by Roger Hawcroft – May 2012
2. First records of the notion of ‘lunacy’.
The notion of lunacy (mental disease or illness) seems to have
first surfaced in about the 12th Century
The Catholic Encyclopaedia gives a date of around 1100 for “an
asylum exclusively for sufferers from mental diseases at Mets”
(Metz, Northern France)
King Henry II established Newgate Prison in 1188 into which
both criminals and ‘lunatics’ were incarcerated
3. Notions of lunacy - continued
1284 – Al-Mansuri Hospital opened in Cairo and had music
therapy for its mental patients.
1292 – “A lunatic who had burned a man’s house down was
convicted by the justice but released on their authority.”
1295 – A legal case linked “the instigation of the devil” and being
“frantic” and “mad”.
4. 14th Century – Establishment of asylums
1310 – A German ‘madhouse’ is mentioned at Elbing, near
Danzig.
1377 – St Mary of Bethlehem priory was confiscated by King
Edward III and used for lunatics from 1377.
1405 – A Royal Commission investigates the state of lunatics
confined at Bethlem Hospital, London.
5. Spain – ‘the cradle of humane psychiatry’
1409 – Spain – Asylums at Valencia, Sargossa, Seville,
Valladolid, Palma Mallorca, Toledo and Granada. These
institutions removed chains and used games, occupation,
entertainment, diet and hygiene to treat inmates
– As a result, Spain has been described as the cradle of humane
psychiatry.
6. 16th Century – ‘psychiatric revolution’
Several writers refer to the Sixteenth Century as a time of
“the first psychiatric revolution”
- The reasoning behind this seems to be based on the
work of several 16th Century writers who offered a natural
alternative to ideas of demonic possession.
1567 – Paracelsus published a small book whose title in
English translation is “Diseases which lead to a loss of
reason”. The introduction makes it clear that these are
not caused by spirits but are natural diseases.
7. Bedlam
1559 – Bedlam is shown on the earliest surviving map of
London – a copper plate engraving of Moorfields,
discovered in 1962 and now in the London Museum.
- The map was probably drawn in 1558 by the Dutch artist
Anthonis van den Wyngaerrde and engraved by
Franciscus Hogenberg in 1559
- 1592 – An account of a trial for conspiracy to kill the King
contains discussion and definitions of terms applying to
the various ‘degrees’ of insanity, such as ‘furor’, ‘delirium’
and ‘dementia’.
8. 17th Century - Incarceration
Michael Foucault suggests that the ‘magnificent developments
of psychiatry’ made in the 16th Century were largely replaced in
the 17th Century by absolutist governments that resolved social
crisis by incarcerating the poor.
1598 & 1601 – The Elizabethan ‘Poor Law’ Act required every
parish to appoint overseers of the poor and set up work-houses
for those who could not support themselves
9. Life in the 17th Century Asylum
1628 - Robert Burton’s: The Anatomy of melancholy. What is its,,
with all the kinds, causes, symptoms and prognostics and
several cures of it .. Philosophically, Medicinally, Historically
opened and cut up. was published.
The book contained a ten picture engraving which was explained
in a verse in the 1632 edition. The verse for the engraving of the
maniac is:
10. Robert Burton’s “The maniac”
But see the Madman range downright
With furious looks, a ghastly sight
Naked In chains bound doth he lie,
And roars amain, he knows not why.
Observe him; for as in a glass,
Thine angry portraiture it was.
His picture keep still in thy presence;
‘Twixt him and thee, there’s no difference.
11. Religion and lunacy
1611 – The Authorised (King James) Version of the Bible had
been published.
The Bible was a major source and influence on ideas of just
about everything in the 17th Century. On the basis of the Bible it
was possible to calculate that something spectacular was likely
to happen in the 1650’s, eg. It was could be calculated that the
great flood took place 1656 years after creation – so 1656 years
after the birth of Christ might be equally significant. Creation
was then put at 4004 and the flood in 2349. 4004-2349 =1656
12. Religion and lunacy - continued
The execution of the English king in 1649 was therefore woven
into speculation that Christ was due to return and establish his
kingdom.
This sort of thinking was behind the rapture of the Quakers and
the armed uprising (to bring about his kingdom) of the 5th
Monarchy Men in 1661
In October 1656, James Nayler (a Quaker) entered Bristol on a
donkey claiming to be Jesus Christ. He was imprisoned until
1659.
Such conflict as this was to continue for around a century.
13. Pay to view insanity
1665 – The Great Plague caused more than 1000 Londoners a
week to die and it also reached many provincial towns.
1666 – The Great Fire of London raged for 5 days.
1676 – After the Great Fire, a new Bethlem Hospital was built
and opened in Moorfields. In 1705 it held 130 patients. – The
new Bethlem was built as a place of display and tourists could
pay to see the humans who were incarcerated in the place, often
naked and in distress.
14. Late 17th Century
The earliest records of private madhouses in England stem from
1670.
1679 – Habeas Corpus Act was passed
1696 – Bristol Poor Act established a workhouse for 100 boys.
The addition of “infants, the aged, infirm, and lunatics” around
1700, changed its character and it became St Peter’s Hospital.
In the 18th Century ir had lunatic wards, in the 19th it became an
asylum
15. 18th Century – Psychiatry as Science
It is argued that psychiatry became an independent science in
the 18th Century – not because of developments in medicine but
rather due to the philosophy of enlightenment which existed at
the time.
Reason was seen as the highest good for philosophers and so
“possession of evil spirits” was regarded as superstition and it
and the connection with religion was replaced by the argument
that the mentally ill had “lost their reason”.
16. 18th Century - Asylums
The first asylums were small and run privately. The best known
and largest was Bedlam (Bethlem) in London. It had 130
patients in 1704
1714 – Vagrancy Act is thought to hae been the first English
statute to specifically provide for the detention of lunatics
1723 – Guys Hospital opened lunatic wards
Charitable asylums were opened in the 18th Century in 8 English
towns.
17. Regulation
1744 – Vagrancy Act – Several naval hospitals were built,
including those at Gosport (Haslar), Plymouth and Chatham.
Haslar became the main lunatic asylum for the navy.
1774 Madhouse Act – based on a recommendation that, “the
present state of private madhouses in this kingdom requires the
interposition of the legislature.
After 1774, private madhouses had to have a licence and
inspection was introduced
18. 18th to 19th Century Influences
1777 – York Asylum opened
1789 – The French Revolution – Resulted in inmates of
madhouses being examined and either set at liberty or “cared for
in hospitals indicated for that purpose”.
By 1800 there were around 40 private madhouses in England.
19. 19th Century
1800 – Criminal Lunatics Act – aimed at the safe custody of
criminal lunatics, especially any that had threatened the king
1808 – County Asylums Act – this was triggered by fear
generated by the long term detention of lunatics after the 1800
Act following John Hadfield’s attempt to shoot George III
1847 - John Connolly published: The Construction and
Government of Lunatic Asylums which was to become a
standard for asylum building in the 19th Century
20. The British Colonial Influence
In Britain in 1888 asylums became the responsibility of County
and County Borough Councils and many improvements resulted
The British 1890 Lunacy Act was a major consolidating Act that
remained the core of English and Welsh Lunacy Legislation until
it was repealed by the 1959 Mental Health Act
With emigration of doctors and humanitarians from Britain, new
ideas, attitudes and manner of treatment were brought to
Australia
21. 1890
Social Climate – At the end of the 19th Century the failure of
asylum therapy had convinced people that insanity was largely
(though not entirely) incurable.
In the 19th Century nearly 10% of patients died within 3 months
of admission from advanced symptoms of cerebral disease
causing mental symptoms initially.
By the end of the 19th Century there were 74000 people in public
asylums in England
22. Baillie Henderson Highlight Events

1986 – 2006: DR JEFFERY THOMPSON
31. DR James Ballantyne Hogg
1888 - 1898 (Recalled to Goodna)
First Medical Superintendent of
what was then Willowburn
Lunatic Asylum.
Dr Hogg emigrated from
Edinburgh. He was well
educated and a sympathetic
custodial carer. He was one of
the earliest doctors in Australia to
insist on disinfectant for treating
wounds during operations.
32. Dr James Nicholl
1898 - 1928
Dr Nicholl’s focus was on
discipline, safety & cleanliness,
and the provision of available

activities including football,
cricket, tennis, dances & visits by
musicians.
He also purchased more land
around the hospital and lowered
some of the high fences
33. Dr James McDonald
1928 - 1945
Dr McDonald took over in a time of
increasing knowledge about
schizophrenia and research into
medication for mental conditions.
During his term of office, new
terms were introduced, such as
“mentally sick” rather than “lunatic”
and “mental hospital” rather than
“lunatic asylum”.
At this time the hospital was a
working farm.
34. Dr Clive Boyce
1946 - 1950
Dr Boyce had an enlightened
attitude to treatment – referred
to as his ‘open-house’ concept.
He insisted that patients be
treated humanely, even during
episodes of violence.
The model of care at this time
was still based on activity and
custodial care.
35. Dr John Baillie Henderson
1950 - 1968
When Dr Henderson took over there
were 1400 patients, both adults and
children.
Dr Henderson aimed to make life
easier for patients and introduced
new treatments, increased the
numbers of staff and improved
working conditions. He also
appointed the first psychologist, in
1951 an Occupational Therapist in
1957 and a social worker in 1966.
36. Dr Michael de Groot
1969 – 1976
Dr Groot instigated the integration
of the male and female sides of the
hospital.
He placed great emphasis on staff
training, appointed 3 nurse
educators, broadened the
curriculum & upgraded the library.
In 1976 there were 770 patients
remaining in the hospital
37. Dr Joan Ridley
1977 - 1984 Dr Ridley brought a new emphasis on
deinstitutionalisation and the development
of community services.
She established the first Community Liaison
Nursing Service, the forerunner of today’s
Community Mental Health Teams. She
was an advocate for staff development and
education and had a focus on social skill
programs for patients.
Dr Ridley saw the hospital as just one
component of an integrated mental health
service
38. Dr Jeffery Thompson
1986 - 1996 Dr Thompson had been Dr Ridley’s
assistant and continued her work by
further developing rehabilitation and
community services.
Notably, Dr Thompson reorganised the
structure of the hospital to focus on 5
extended care patient groups, put simply:
•Elderly demented & disturbed
•Mentally retarded
•Brain damaged
•Psychotic & assaultative
•Chronically schizophrenic
39. The Administrative Era
The new millennium brought about an increasing shift from
local to centralised control and the era of administration as
opposed to clinically orientated decision making.
The era has been one of constant changes at executive level
and much instability. An unfortunate consequence of this
has been a lessening of the links between the hospital and
the local community.
At the same time, this period has seen a rapid acceleration
in the need for mental health services, ever increasing
costs, and some considerable uncertainty about the future.
40. 2010 and Beyond
In 2011 the State Government announced that it would split
up Queensland Health and establish local Hospital and
Heath Networks.
These networks will, once again, put more control in the
hands of local communities through the establishment of
local Boards to oversee hospital management.
There will still be centralised support and supervision but
more decision-making will rest at the local level.
41. The Museum
For the centenary celebrations of 1990, a museum was
established in one of the original buildings of the hospital.
Unfortunately, since that time there has been little attention
given to either the building (which is now in an extremely
poor state of repair) or to the artefacts held within it.
In 2010 attempts were started to revitalise the museum with
a hope that much can be preserved and eventually used for
public display once more. This work is ongoing.
42. Confinement & Containment
In the early days, psychiatry was in its infancy – Freud was
postulating about dreams (1900) and psychology didn’t
exist.
There were no medications as we know them today and
little understanding of the range of mental illnesses, their
symptoms and manifestations
Treatment was about confinement, work, and discipline
44. Window Treatments
Windows were generally
barred on the outside and
provided virtually the only
ventilation in the wards.
However, the high-ceiling
design of the wards was
specifically intended to create
a minimum area of air space
for each patient.
45. Straitjacket
In the early years there were
not the medications that we
have today.
In many cases, physical
controls were the only resort of
the carers where patients were
violent and intent on harming
themselves or others.
48. Dr Whishaw’s demise
Fire nozzle
On 7th December 1908 Dr.
Reginald Robert Whishaw
was hit over the head with a
fire nozzle wielded by one of
the patients. Dr Whishaw
died the following day of a
fractured skull
49. Self sufficiency – work as therapy
For many years the clothes
used in the hospital were made
by patients.
Shoes and other items were
also made within the hospital.
As activity was the main
therapy, patients were put to
work – women mainly in sewing
and men in the fields.
For two years the sale of
produce actually covered the
cost of running the hospital!
50. Commode Room
A small room – one on each
floor of the building – was
the only internal toilet
facility available to patients.
70. Gardening par excellence
Many trophies were
won by the hospital for
its gardens.
The hospital floats took
out several first prizes
in the annual Carnival
of the Flowers in
Toowoomba
