Alongside the diplomatic struggles of the early Cold War, European politicians worked to shape emotions about the postwar order-advocating fear of communism and hope for postwar recovery. In this context, the French Empire in North Africa emerged as one important emotional battleground, where Algerian nationalists and anti-colonial campaigners challenged French narratives about imperial pride and native hysteria. During the Algerian War (1954–1962), emotions thus became a pivotal part of the independence struggle.

Focuses on the Lennox-Gastaut syndrome, and addresses the differences between this seizure disorder and other epileptical conditions with similar clinical and electroencephalographic features.

This volume is arranged so as to review the classification of the Epilepsies, Epileptic Syndromes and Related Disorders (International League Against Epilepsy) and then the individual groups of benign epilepsies including benign childhood epilepsy with centrotemporal spike discharges, benign epilepsy in childhood with occipital paroxysms and epilepsy in slow wave sleep. Also included is a section followed by a discussion of the benign generalized epilepsies and the borderland between them and the more sinsiter conditions. The definition of the syndrome has received further impetus by the discovery that some of the syndromes represented in the primary or idiopathic epilepsies have a distinct place in the human genome with a putative localization of juvenile myoclonic epilepsy on chromosome 6 and of benign familial neonatal convulsions on chromosome 20.
