Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Spasm in Chronic Nerve Disease: Being the Gulstonian Lectures Delivered at the Royal College of Physicians of London, March 1886
By spasm is meant excessive muscular contraction; and, if we confine our attention to those muscles which are under the control of the will, excessive contraction is that which occurs in defiance of the will, or which, although commencing as a voluntary act, transgresses the limits which the will would impose upon it.
