Life

After attending the humanistic grammar school in Stuttgart , Joachim Bodamer studied medicine , psychology and philosophy in Heidelberg , Berlin and Munich and worked as a specialist in nervous and emotional disorders and as a "psychiatrist and senior physician at a southern German sanatorium". In 1947 he was the first to describe the clinical picture of prosopagnosia . In 1955, Bodamer published his work Health and Technical World , in which he created "the picture of a mercilessly engineered time".

In his book Der Mann von heute (1956), Bodamer believed that the man “had incited women into 'erotic competition' which would destroy the 'high personality value of restraint and shame', 'which belongs to women so inseparably that they can do without he is not a woman '".
