Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Manual Nervous Diseases of Man, Vol. 1
I have retained the same division of the nervous diseases which I have followed for a series of years in my lectures delivered in the university; it is determined by the attributes of the four nervous levers of the organism; accordingly the subject will be considered under the following four heads the Neurosis of Sensibility, the Neurosis of Motility, Logo-neurosis, and Tropho-neurosis. The delineations of the individual diseases have been taken from cases observed by myself, whenever this was feasible 5 they are unsoiled by the dust of tradition. I have been at great pains to exhibit the results obtained by surgical observation and experiment as the prototypes of complicated pathological conditions. It was not a part of my plan to introduce historical and literary disquisitions, although I have never neglected the duty of giving every one his due.
