Wilder Penfield Diary, May 1972 to May 1974

The file contains the diary of Wilder Penfield for May 1972 to May 1974. The front cover is inscribed with “May 72 - Nov 74”. The diary documents Penfield’s thoughts and reactions to colleagues deaths, such as that of Dr. Wilburt Davidson and Francis Hall; his health, his age and decreased mobility; Helen’s memory issues; social activities such as church services, weddings, and visits; the writing of No Man Alone; the Vanier Institute of the Family; and addresses and the accompanying trips, to London Ontario’s Department of Neurology and Neurosurgery in September 1972 and the trip to the Glasgow Institute of Neurological Services. In addition, Penfield discusses science and religion during an Easter entry, looking at the resurrection of Christ in terms of brain processes. Penfield has gone through and corrected his grammar and spelling or has expanded upon his initial thoughts, usually in pencil or pen.
