From the Second World War to Vietnam
Based upon a cache of clinical histories from 1943–1945—actual carbon copies of case records—the author reflects on the history of theories and treatments of PTSD, re-examines his clinical case notes for soldiers during the Second World War, and recalls his work as a psychiatrist in field hospitals in the Pacific Theater. The author compares the clinical syndromes of PTSD as they appeared in patients from the Second World War and the Vietnam era
ÉmigrÉ analysts in Boston, 1930-1940
A brief history of the European analysts who settled in Boston during the first decade of the newly re-organized Boston Psychoanalytic Society/Institute, as part of the great intellectual migration fleeing from Hitler Germany and Austria. The term émigré was chosen as more inclusive, since not all were refugees forced to emigrate. The sequence of each analyst's arrival is traced, and their reasons for choosing Boston are identified, whenever poss…

An American analyst in Vienna during theAnschluss, 1936-1938

Adrenal Steroid Excretion Patterns in Eighteen Healthy Subjects
A correlative study of adrenal steroid excretion patterns and personality in 18 healthy young college men indicated (1) that the 24-hr. urinary excretion rates of 17-hydroxycorticosteroids and 17-ketosteroids were relatively constant over a period of 5 wk.; (2) that individuals maintained the same relative position throughout this period of observation in regard to the others within the group studied according to an identifiable steroid excretion…

Transient Disturbances in Perception
Psychological Observations of Patients Undergoing Mitral Surgery
Thirty-two patients with mitral stenosis who had mitral surgery were interviewed by psychiatrists preoperatively and also postoperatively. An understanding of long-term adaptation to progressive limitation of activities provided the necessary background for the recognition of emergency defenses as they developed in the hospital situation both before and after operation. The interviewing technique focused on emotionally meaningful material concern…
Psychological Responses to ACTH and Cortisone
Pharmacological doses of ACTH and cortisone disturb the biochemical equilibrium. A new dynamic equilibrium is established: (i) when the quantity of ACTH and cortisone administered remains within the physiological capacity to maintain homeostasis; (2) when internal metabolic stores are adequate; or (3) when the intake of exogenous supplies is unrestricted. ACTH and cortisone bring about an acceleration of the rate of biochemical interchange and pr…
