Mesmerizing Origins: The Birth of Hypnotism and the Placebo Effect
In the 18th century, during the Age of Enlightenment, scientific progress was transforming our understanding of the universe, but medicine still relied on outdated practices like bloodletting. Enter Franz Anton Mesmer, a Viennese physician who gained fame in Paris by claiming he could heal using “animal magnetism,” an invisible force he believed controlled health. His popularity waned when a commission led by Benjamin Franklin, appointed by King Louis XVI, debunked his methods in 1784. However, the study revealed that Mesmer’s techniques did make patients feel better, paving the way for the concept of the placebo effect and the development of modern hypnotism.
Revolutionizing Vaccines: The Dawn of mRNA and Adenovirus Technology
There are four traditional vaccine types, all requiring live pathogens to be grown in a lab—a lengthy process. However, mRNA vaccines (Pfizer-BioNTech, Moderna) and Adenovirus vaccines (Johnson & Johnson, AstraZeneca) bypass this by sending genetic instructions directly into our cells, prompting them to produce the necessary protein to combat COVID-19. This approach not only accelerated vaccine development but also marked the beginning of a new era in vaccine technology, now being explored for HIV and cancer treatments. The true impact of these innovations is just beginning.
Queen Victoria’s Royal Marriage Strategy
During her 63-year reign, Queen Victoria strategically arranged marriages to place her descendants in royal families across Europe, creating a remarkable royal network. Following the Napoleonic Wars, European leaders sought peace through a new balance of power, with Great Britain emerging strong. To maintain this power, Victoria and her husband Albert married their children into European monarchies. By the 1880s, her descendants occupied key royal thrones. Though not all unions went as planned, seven of her 42 grandchildren ended up on thrones across Europe, influencing events leading to World War I. Video journalist Sam Ellis uses maps to explore these historical trends and their impact on foreign policy.
Royal Wealth and Breaking Traditions
The British royal family is wealthy, but not as wealthy as you might assume due to an age-old system governing their income and the stigma around earning privately beyond official duties.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are challenging these traditional financial rules, potentially making a smart financial move.
