Abstract

The history of the first experiments with blood transfusion shows that doctors of antiquity pinned extraordinary hopes on this method mainly because of the supposed effect of transfused blood on the psyche of the patient. It is no exaggeration to say that the first steps of the blood transfusion method were related to the treatment of mental illnesses.
