Reproduction of the original: Fasting Girls by William A. Hammond
In 'Fasting Girls: Their Physiology and Pathology', William A. Hammond examines the claims of young girls who supposedly lived for years without any food. Published in 1879, this book is still referenced today for its skeptical analysis of the phenomenon, which Hammond attributed to fraud and hysteria. With a desire to combat popular ignorance, Hammond explores the history of abstinence from food, as well as the physiological and pathological effects of inanition.
