Fasting Girls: Their Physiology And Pathology is a book written by William Alexander Hammond and first published in 1879. The book explores the phenomenon of young girls who claimed to survive without any food or water for extended periods of time, often attributed to divine intervention or possession. Hammond, a physician and neurologist, examines the case histories of several fasting girls and attempts to explain the physiological and pathological processes that may have contributed to their conditions. He also critiques the cultural and religious beliefs that perpetuated the myth of the fasting girl, arguing that many of these cases were likely the result of fraud or psychological disorders. The book provides a fascinating glimpse into the medical and cultural attitudes of the late 19th century towards unusual medical conditions and the intersection of science and religion.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
