Prison Doc, Thirty-Five Years

Bohdan "Ben" Darnobid was a early pioneer in a new mid level medical field in 1978, not a nurse and yet not a doctor. At the time of his graduation from a PA program not much was known about Physician Assistants, what they were able to do and not do. It was unsure if they would be accepted by the community, nurses and physicians. The book begins at Sing Sing prison, one of the most famous prisons in the world. The author shares important personal accounts about working as PA (Physician Assistant) in the New York State Department of Corrections where he worked for thirty five years. The book offers a fascinating insight to a world that most people know little about.

The Fake Prison Doctor of Auschwitz

After over half a century of secrecy, a Swiss bank safe was opened, it contained the long-lost research notes of Josef Mengele, as well as those of his chief assistant in Auschwitz. They had been deposited there by the assistant who himself had been a Jewish doctor. Sent to Auschwitz, he was forced to participate in Josef Mengele’s gruesome human experiments. Following the war, he completely disappeared, assuming a new identity and shrouding himself in silence. He did write his story down, but ordered the documents to be sealed away until decades after his death. With the release date drawing closer, his granddaughter, a well-connected Vatican doctor, wanted to have the documents examined b...

In eighteenth-century Britain, gaols were places of temporary confinement, where inmates stayed while awaiting punishment. With the rise of the 'penitentiary' from the early nineteenth century, custodial institutions housed prisoners for much longer periods of time. Prisoners were supposed to be reformed as well as punished during their incarceration. From at least the time of John Howard (1726-1790), the health of prisoners has been part of the concern of philanthropists and others concerned with the wider functions of prisons. The Victorians established a Prison Medical Service, and members of the medical profession have long been involved in caring for the mental and physical needs of prisoners. For two centuries, prison overcrowding has been identified as a major cause of mortality and morbidity in prisons. Historical debates thus often have a modern ring to them, which make the essays in this volume particularly timely.
