Hobart Amory Hare

Epilepsy: Its Pathology and Treatment is a book written by Hobart Amory Hare in 1890. The book provides a comprehensive overview of epilepsy, including its causes, symptoms, and treatment options. Hare explores the various forms of epilepsy and their associated pathologies, including focal epilepsy, grand mal epilepsy, and petit mal epilepsy. He also discusses the role of genetics and heredity in the development of epilepsy, as well as the importance of environmental factors such as diet and lifestyle. The book also covers the various treatments available for epilepsy at the time, including pharmacological therapies, surgical interventions, and alternative therapies such as diet and exercise. Hare provides detailed descriptions of the various medications used to treat epilepsy, including their mechanisms of action and potential side effects. Throughout the book, Hare emphasizes the importance of a multidisciplinary approach to the treatment of epilepsy, involving not only physicians but also psychologists, social workers, and other healthcare professionals. He also stresses the need for ongoing research into the causes and treatments of epilepsy, in order to improve the lives of those affected by this condition. Overall, Epilepsy: Its Pathology and Treatment provides a valuable historical perspective on the understanding and treatment of epilepsy in the late 19th century.
