Produktbeschreibung
The nervous child begins with a vivid allegory that introduces the concept of extreme sensitivity in childhood, setting the tone for a detailed examination of how emotional and environmental influences shape mental and physical well-being. The text argues that what might appear as behavioral difficulties often stem from deep-rooted nervous conditions shaped by early care and upbringing. The author emphasizes the pivotal responsibility of parents and caregivers, suggesting that subtle neglect or overindulgence can lead to long-term psychological strain. The book warns against misinterpreting these issues as mere disobedience or weakness, instead urging a nuanced understanding of developmental needs. By establishing the nervous child as a subject requiring both medical and emotional insight, the author builds a framework for addressing specific concerns such as sleep, appetite, and anxiety. The early chapters stress that prevention and compassionate attention are more effective than correction after distress manifests. This introduction sets the stage for a comprehensive guide designed to assist those responsible for a child's upbringing in fostering resilience and emotional stability without resorting to punishment or coercion.
Autorenporträt
Hector Charles Cameron, born on 17 July 1878 in Glasgow, was the younger son of Sir Hector Clare Cameron. Known personally as Charles Cameron, he received his early education at Clifton College and later attended the University of Glasgow. In 1898, he earned a Foundation Scholarship in Science at St John's College, Cambridge, where he graduated with first-class honors in the Natural Sciences Tripos in 1901. He went on to study medicine at Guy s Hospital, qualifying M.R.C.S. and L.R.C.P. in 1905, earning subsequent degrees including the B.Chir., M.B., and an M.D. by 1910. Cameron was elected a Member of the Royal College of Physicians in 1908 and became a Fellow six years later. At Guy's Hospital, he progressed from demonstrator to dean of the medical school by 1912. In 1920, he chose to focus on pediatrics rather than accept a full physician s post. Cameron was editor of the Guy s Hospital Gazette for many years and delivered the Lumleian Lectures in 1925. He received an M.A. from Glasgow in 1906 and an honorary LL.D. in 1956.
