Abstract:
The actus reus is a central aspect of criminal law that defines the harm done to the victim and the wrong performed by the defendant. In many cases this involves proof that the defendant caused a particular result. This chapter begins by distinguishing the component elements of a crime. It then discusses the voluntary act ‘requirement’; causation; classification of offences; the need for a voluntary act; omissions; and seeking a coherent approach to causation.

It identifies the people who may have rights over Trant House—rights that could be enforced not only against Vernon, the fee simple owner, but also against anyone who acquires the property from him. The discussions cover interests in land; legal interests; equitable interests; legal and equitable interests compared; the multiplicity of rights; and the classification of property.

The definition of disease is not straightforward. Whilst an epileptic seizure—a symptom—can be considered as an electrochemical cerebral phenomenon, defining epilepsy is more difficult. It is more than just a strictly medical and mechanical brain disorder, but has signification that extends beyond the individual, and has societal and cultural connotation. Disease is sometimes considered to be defined by causation, but deciding what is cause in epilepsy is also a complicated question. The distinction between disability and disease can also be blurred.

In 1874, Karl Kahlbaum, a German psychiatrist in an obscure private hospital, pulled various symptom pictures together into a single diagnosis: “catatonia.” Kahlbaum had earlier pioneered the modern classification of illness with his concepts of course and outcome as demarcating the various disease entities. He thought that, similar to neurosyphilis, catatonia had a common cause and common clinical course but, unlike neurosyphilis, often a relatively benign outcome. He believed the illness progressed in fixed stages. At the same time, Kahlbaum’s associate, Ewald Hecker, described madness in yo

This chapter begins with the proposal that we should treat organisms not, as is traditional, as a kind of thing or substance, but as a kind of process.

Kant bases a table of metaphysical categories on a table of the forms of judgments. Peirce regards Kant’s initial table of the forms of judgments as superficial and hasty.

Second, Kant ought to have regarded his table as a table of propositions rather than of judgments. Third, Kant has failed to reduce the table to the fewest predicables possible.

Abstract:
Emil Kraepelin, professor of psychiatry first in Heidelberg then Munich, originated modern psychiatric diagnosis. So it was a fateful error when, in 1899, Kraepelin made catatonia a “subtype” of schizophrenia (which Kraepelin called “dementia praecox”). He did so on the basis of what Kraepelin considered a downhill course and outcome. Catatonia thus disappeared into the schizophrenia tent and ceased to be an independent disease entity. There it remained for the next century. It was because of Kraepelin’s immense prestige that his disease classification has survived virtually until the present.
