A century ago, the battlefields of World War One gave rise to wounds unseen-traumas that haunted minds as fiercely as bullets scarred bodies. Hysterical Disorders Of Warfare stands as a landmark in the historical psychology of war, revealing the early struggles to understand and treat war-related mental disorders at the dawn of military psychiatry. Lewis R. Yealland, a pioneering British physician, invites readers into the nerve-shaken wards of the era, where shell shock was not just a medical mystery but a crisis reshaping both military medicine and society itself. Through clear-eyed clinical observation and a deep engagement with the psychological effects of war, Yealland's work illuminates the intersection of trauma and recovery in the context of early 20th century warfare. His methods-controversial, influential, and indelibly marked by the shadow of Sigmund Freud-offer a rare window into the challenges faced by both patients and practitioners. This volume is indispensable for scholars of military history, mental health professionals, and anyone drawn to the enduring legacy of the World War One era. Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today-a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike. For those fascinated by British military medicine or the roots of trauma studies, Hysterical Disorders Of Warfare is more than a historical document; it is a cultural touchstone, restored for a new generation's reflection.
