Morel French scientist was the first to systematize the doctrine of the degeneration of humanity.If you deviate from the normal type of the person happens regress and degenerate there - who is he and what it represents?Healthy, insane, criminal?Is such a degeneration of inherited or acquired?Psychiatrist Morel studied the causes of insanity, and he was interested in heredity of mental incapacity.
Dr. Morel began to talk about the first signs of degeneration.It was quite a long list, which includes both physical and mental symptoms of degeneration.In such a person has a certain stigma - stigmata of degeneration.
Surprisingly, listed Morel degenerate characteristics can be inherited.In the first generation recorded only brain flushes, nervous temperament, unbridled nature, irritability.In the second generation there are diseases of the brain, and the third - the patient commit dangerous acts.Then it appears phenomena such as congenital deafness, dementia, idiocy and backwardness.
Also hereditary factors on the degeneration of the person affected by intoxication:
- alcohol, opium;
- epidemic, the hunger strike;
- poisoning;
- soil composition.
Under the influence of the social environment also appears degenerate - who is, what it looks like?Most often it is financially needy person who works in hazardous work.Such people have a congenital malformation.Severe mental injury also contribute to degeneration.
It is thanks to the teachings of Morel "Treatise on the degeneration of" the study of social issues more closely engaged.Please note that there is a link between degeneration and back-breaking labor in unsanitary conditions.Then I was born the idea of ​​preventive medicine.
degenerate word, the meaning of his description of signs and symptoms of degeneration should be studied in the scientific literature.Mutations and changes in the tissues of the body are due to unfavorable conditions.A great influence on the physical degeneration has power.
In today's world, it is practically impossible to use only proper nutrition.Environmental pollution, industrial wastes, herbicides and pesticides, fluorides, petrochemical products - all lead to the degeneration of the person.
Psychic degenerate - Who is this insane?Outwardly, it often manifests itself in malformations.Physical disability is not necessarily to be clear.Can only be marked, for example, the irregular shape of the ears and skull.
Much attention in psychiatry at inspection sick pay auricles.For the first time drew attention to the changes in the structure of the ear and ear shape French psychiatrist, so the ears are often called "Morelevskimi."
Surveyed degenerate, who is, for some anomalies of the structure can be assumed?These symptoms include: hearing problems (hypoplasia or total deafness), and changes in the structure of the internal organs.
We must not forget that the manifestation of any sign of developmental abnormalities in humans does not necessarily mean that it is degenerate.Scientific Morel just generalized signs of degeneration, thereby creating a program of study of mental disorders.
