TBI: designed for young children

engraving

A year ago a post about traumatic brain injury TBI statistics in children was published. Occasionally, yesterday I saw pictures from The Book of Accidents: designed for young children. It was published in 1831. This masterpiece is illustrated by numerous possibilities to be killed of severely injured. I believe that little readers were impressed for the entire life. As far as most of the engravings demonstrate other 'young children' causing traumas to their friends on purpose, some readers could definitely use the knowledge acquired from the book for causing accidents and not for avoiding them.

Many illustrations are related to TBI, following disability, motor disorders, and, possibly, rehabilitation.
