- Lord Moran. First published in 1945 this early groundbreaking account of the psychological effects of war recounted by means of vivid first-hand observation & anecdote came at a time when shell-shock was equated with lack of moral fibre. In 1940 Moran became Churchills doctor & his position as a one of historys most important war physicians was secured. His humane considered observations scientific analysis & proposed solutions constitute one of the great First World War sources. However they are perhaps just as relevant to our own conflict-ridden times. Charles Mc Moran Wilson was awarded the MC during the Battle of the Somme & the Italian Silver Medal for Military Valour. He was the Dean of St Marys Hospital Medical School became Winston Churchills doctor in 1940 & was President of the Royal College of Physicians.
