“When morphine for injection was first introduced it was often injected just under the skin rather than intravenously, though this could lead to abscesses and scarring as shown here. This ‘morphinomaniac’ subject was a male nurse pictured shortly before his death.” (Illustration by H H Kane, 1881 - courtesy Wellcome Images) Yo, Londoners! Get your lazy arses to Euston’s Wellcome Collection to check out their new show High Society.

“ And then Dr. Scoville inserted a silver straw into Mr. M.’s brain and sucked out nearly the entire grayish-pink mass of the hippocampus and the regions leading up to it. On both sides. He drew out altogether a fist-sized piece of the center of the brain.

- Philip J. Hilts about H.M. in Memory’s Ghost
