History of pediatric neurosurgery in the United States and Canada

Neurosurgery was sporadically practiced on children from prehistoric times until the Harvey Cushing era. The formal development and teaching of the specialty was begun by Franc Ingraham under Cushing's direction in 1929. The growth of pediatric neurosurgery at Boston Children's Hospital under the direction of Franc ingraham and Donald Matson until the late 1960s is described, as is its subsequent spread throughout the United States and Canada. More recently, a number of societies and journals have played important roles in shaping and advancing the specialty. Currently, a proposal to require additional training for certification in pediatric neurosurgery is being considered by several organizations in North America.Presented at the XVII Annual Meeting of the International Society for Pediatric Neurosurgery, Bombay 1989

On the differences in the historical development of psychoanalysis in the United States and Canada

Psychoanalysis developed differentially in Canada and the United States. In the United States it was geared to the model of having only physicians train in psychoanalysis, which was followed from the very beginning but in Canada the standard of the International Psycho-Analytic Association was used allowing the training of some lay analysts as well as physicians. In Canada, though very Freudian, a more integrated view of many different schools of psychoanalysis was taught as adjuncts to the Freudian view, this being based to a large degree on the British psychoanalytic model. The American Psychoanalytic suffered many splits on the issues on social factors and to some degree on political issues in the twenties and the thirties. This was avoided by the Canadian societies and institutes. The main similarities and differences in historical development are outlined and discussed.
