Book excerpt: Excerpt from A d104-Book of Insanity Year by year the students to whom I lecture ask me what book on insanity they ought to study, and year by year I have to recommend books which I know to be excellent in themselves, but which I feel are of such bulk and volume as to be out of proportion to the time which students can profitably give to an outlying subject, and to the vast mass of other material which they have to assimilate during their brief curriculum.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A d104-Book of Insanity and Other Mental Diseases This book was primarily intended for the use of students of medicine, as an introduction to the study of insanity, to give them a general notion of' the subject without going much into detail, and incidentally to be of use to them in examinations. In this object it succeeded so far that it became, I am told, the text-book in use in most of the Universities. It was not intended as an advanced book for those who make a special study of insanity, and in this respect also it has not disappointed its author, for the novel doctrines contained in it do not appear to have become known to them yet.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Psychology of Insanity It must be clearly understood, moreover, that no attempt has been made to cover the whole field of insanity. On the contrary, certain sections of that field have been more or less arbitrarily selected, mainly on the ground that they yield fruitful results to psychological methods of investigation. I confidently anticipate that. In the future these methods will have a far wider application, but in the present state of our knowledge it must be frankly admitted that there are whole tracts of insanity in which they have only a very limited utility. This confession is all the more necessary on account of the tendency to unduly extensive generalisation evident in the work of many recent investigators. In View of the enormous complexity of mental processes, and the youthfulness ofpsychology, it is best to realise that progress must inevitably be slow, and that we must be content to feel our way to the scientific laws of the future.

Download or read book A Text Book of Mental Diseases written by William Bevan Lewis and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-08-20 with total page 652 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Text-Book of Mental Diseases: With Special Reference to the Pathological Aspects of Insanity It has, however, been my special object to present a resume of our knowledge of the structure and connections of the cerebro-spinal nervous system, of the architecture of the cerebral hemispheres, and more especially of the cortical envelope as the essential organ - the material substratum - of Mind; and to afford a concise account of the morbid changes found in the brain of the insane, as viewed in the light of recent research. It appears to me that a disproportionate amount of attention has been paid in former text-books to the clinical aspects of Insanity, and it is hoped that this attempt to deal more fully with the organisation of the material substratum of mind, and with the evidences of morbid change to which it is prone, will not prove unwelcome to the Student of Mental Disease. In the Anatomical Section, I have endeavoured to comprise such information as shall prove of utility to a more thorough conception of the ground-plan and superstructure of the nervous system; and it will be at once evident that special emphasis has been advisedly bestowed upon the cortical envelope - the structure, nature, and autonomy of the nerve-cell.viii preface. The Clinical Section comprises statistics based upon an analysis of cases of Insanity in both sexes, treated at the West Riding Asylum. In the Pathological Section, I have endeavoured to do justice to certain morbid processes, which appear to me to be of paramount importance in the history of Insanity; and more particularly would I here allude to the functions of the Lymph connective system of the Brain, and the life-history of the Scavenger-cell.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Insanity: Its Causes and Prevention It is something more than two years since I read a paper, entitled "The Insane Diathesis," at a meeting of the Connecticut Medical Society. The numerous requests received for copies of that article have led me to think that something more in detail in relation to the prevention of insanity might be desired by the reading public both lay and professional. Hence this little book. It has not been written for specialists exclusively, though it is hoped it will not prove wholly uninteresting to them, but rather for those in the general practice of medicine, educators, and the more intelligent lay members of society. It has been written during odd snatches of time and with many interruptions, so that there exists less uniformity of style than there would otherwise be. Moreover, some of the subjects presented have been discussed by me in papers which have already been published. These papers, however, so far as they have been introduced into this work, have been rewritten, and, it is thought, improved.

It is readily understood that in this volume clinical histories could not be included. It 'is especially true of psychic diseases, as well as of ailments included in the general study of medicine, that clinical histories do not give an actual picture of the dis ease to him who would learn to know it.

This book was released on 2015-06-29 with total page 418 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Handbook of Insanity for Practitioners and Students But anatomy alone does not suffice for a thorough understanding. We must not desist entirely from the attempt to investigate the intermediate processes which lead from external to internal experience. Hence the relation of bodily and mental disturbances must be made clear by the intimate association of cerebral pathology and psychopathology. The Brain as the Site of Normal Mental Processes. Anatomically the brain is the rallying-point of almost all the spinal systems of fibres; in addition the most varied association-systems are present in the cerebrum itself. Comparative anatomy teaches that relatively to the size of the body the size of the cerebral lobes increases, in general, with the intelligence of the animal. The same relation is shown in the increasing development of the surface of the brain by fissures and convolutions, and for this reason the cortical gray matter is universally regarded as an especially important part of the cerebrum. As a rule, individuals of great mental activity possess very large brains, with a marked development of the surface. It is probable that great importance also attaches to the thickness of the cortex. Developmental history shows that the development of the surface and the mass of individual parts does not always coincide in point of time with the appearance of higher mental activities, but that it precedes the latter in a certain measure. The association-fibres in the cerebral cortex develop within the first year of life, and it is not until the age of seven to eight years that they attain the arrangement which is permanent in adults. The development of these fibres occurs latest in the frontal lobes. A further argument in favor of the view that the mental processes take place in the brain is furnished by self-observation during mental processes, which are accompanied by very feeble sensations in the brain.
