Abstract

This article discusses the life and career of Alfred A. Strauss, a neurologist and psychiatrist who was forced to emigrate multiple times due to the rise of Hitler and the Nazi regime. Strauss began his medical studies in Germany and later worked in Spain and Switzerland before eventually settling in the United States. He made significant contributions to the field of neurology, particularly in the study of brain-injured children and learning disabilities. Despite facing challenges and discrimination, Strauss's career flourished, and he became a respected figure in the field. [Extracted from the article]
