Alexander the Great, the dahlia, and the tortoise

Malcolm Macmillan. J Hist Neurosci. 2004 Jun.

Abstract

Some of the problems of establishing the cause of the death of Alexander the Great are like the attempts to find causes other than hysteria for Anna O.'s symptoms. The more general problem of using plausibility as a criterion of the truth of such reconstructions are illustrated by the arguments embedded in Tom Stoppard's Arcadia.
