Excerpt from A Practical Treatise on Nervous Diseases for the Medical Student and General Practitioner This text-book on Nervous Diseases has been written for the student and general practitioner. It has ever been the object to curtail details of the doubtful points in neurology and to make most in small compass of practical facts in the study of nervous disorders. We believe that this is the surest method of instilling knowledge of so intricate a subject. The chapter on anatomy and physiology has been blended, so that its study will insure a pretty clear understanding of the anatomy and functions of the various parts of the nervous system. I have to thank my colleague. Prof. Isaac Ott, for the physiological details given. I beg to acknowledge, among many other authorities, special reference to the works of Gowers, Mills, Dana, Barker, Osier, and Strumpell, to the latter three of which the author is also indebted for several cuts, for which credit is given in the text. I gratefully acknowledge the kindness for the use of illustrations from The Diagnostics of Internal Medicine, by Dr. G. E. Butler, and Accident and Injury, by Dr. Pearce Bailey, respectively; also to Dr. M. K. Kassabian and Dr. G. E. Pfahler for the X-ray productions and some of the photographs. It is the purpose of the author to follow this contribution by a similar treatise on Mental Diseases, so that the two works can be used in consonance by the medical student and busy practitioner.

Excerpt from A Treatise on Nervous and Mental Diseases, for Students and Practitioners of Medicine In carrying out the therapeutic aim of the book, each chapter has been made to contain its own section on treatment. Especial care has been taken to make the therapeutical suggestions sufficiently detailed and precise to cover the varying stages, symptoms, and complications of disease, as well as to follow the important indications afforded by differential diagnosis. In the chapters upon Mental Diseases the most approved treatment is stated, and likewise the results to be expected. Only that knowledge has been admitted to these pages which has stood the test of experience. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Diseases of the Nervous System: For General Practitioner and Student The modern physician is not satisfied with a mere enumeration of facts. In reading a description of any malady he wishes also to know the reason of the disturbed functions and the anatomical substratum of the morbid phenomena. Otherwise speaking he feels that he must know the relation of a certain manifestation to the normal and morbid physiology of an affected tissue or organ. The knowledge of pathology is therefore a sine qua non to every think ing man. This chapter must therefore precede any other in giving an account of a certain disease. As I am aiming almost exclusively to present Nervous Diseases from a practical standpoint, I naturally avoided too technical and debatable points of pathology, but on the contrary endeavored to present the most essential changes necessary for a thorough under standing of various clinical manifestations.

Excerpt from A Treatise on the Nervous Diseases of Children: For Physicians and Students A little more than two years ago a fellow-neurologist suggested to the author that it would be well for him to write a treatise on the Nervous Affections of Childhood, which would give both the physician and the student fuller information regarding these diseases than is to be obtained from text-books on pediatrics. The first conception of what such a treatise ought to be was a very modest one, but the task has grown upon the author's hands until the book assumed its present propor tions. It was thought best to include all those diseases which either occur frequently during early life, or which, when occurring at this period, have some distinctive feat ures. According to this plan such affections as epilepsy, tumors of the brain, and meningitis, which occur both in adult life and in childhood, have been treated fully, but tabes dorsalis and general paresis, although observed occasion ally in youthful individuals, did not seem to come within the scope of this treatise.

Excerpt from Diseases of the Nervous System For: The General Practitioner and Student In presenting the second edition of this work I had again in view principally the general practitioner. The new facts which have been developed since the first edition I have endeavored to describe in a concise but at the same time complete manner.
