Book excerpt: Excerpt from Treatise on the Medical Jurisprudence of Insanity Quite recently, the only complete and methodical treatise on insanity in conn'ection with its legal relations. It bears the impress of a philosophical mind accustomed to observe the mental Operations when under the influence of disease; it contains a happy analysis of some states of mental impair ment; its doctrines are generally correct, and in many instances in advance of his own, and even of our time. Hoffbauer, however, not being a practical physician, was less disposed to consider insanity in its pathological than in.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Treatise on Medical Jurisprudence The two points which were mainly before the authors of the follow ing treatise when they entered upon its preparation, and the hope of reaching which formed their chief inducement in approaching a tepic which has already been in other respects so ably and fully discussed elsewhere, were, first, the incorporation in its pages of the results of late continental, and particularly French and German, research; and secondly, the bringing together stereoscopically - if the metaphor can be permitted - of the Legal and Medical points of vision, so that the information required by each profession might be collected and viewed at the same time and within the same compass. It was felt that in the usual range of medico-legal exposition there was a great deal that, though interesting to the medical man, is unnecessary to the legal practitioner; and, on the other hand, it is equally clear that there are many points upon which the latter needs information, which the former, either from inadvertence or from what would be to him their extreme simplicity, may forbear to touch. The converse also is true, viz., that the legal writer who undertakes such a work, except in subordination to medical advice, may exhibit very satisfactorily the necessities of legal practice, but will fail to supply the information by which these necessities can be met.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Treatise on the Medical Jurisprudence of Insanity Mental disease, or disease Of the brain. Powerfully affects, or may affect, the knowledge by which our actions are guided, the feelings by which our actions are prompted, the will by which our actions are performed, whether the word will is taken to mean volition or a settled judgment Of the reason acting as a standing con trol on such actions as relate to it. The means by which these effects are produced are unnatural feelings; delu sions or false opinions as to facts; hallucinations or deceptions Of the senses; impulses to particular acts or classes of acts; and in some cases, it is asserted, a specific physical inability to recognize the difference between moral good and evil as a motive for doing good and avoiding evil.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Medical Jurisprudence of Insanity The last words of a book are those which meet the reader's eye first. As that is the case, a preface generally says what the book is meant to be, and in how far the writer's intentions have been realised in the work. Most prefaces are apologies. This work on mental defects and diseases in their legal relations is intended as a practical treatise more complete and systematic than the chapters devoted to this subject in medico-legal text-books, or than those monographs on limited portions of it which have from time to time appeared.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Introduction to Medical Jurisprudence In this book an attempt has been made to state the essentials of Medical Jurisprudence as definitely and, at the same time, as briefly as possible, without producing a 'cram' book. The points of law most likely to arise are set forth without comment, since in this form the reader can find out what the law is - concerning insanity, for example - more satisfactorily than when it is stated together with confusing opinions with regard to what it ought to be. Only the poisons that are most frequently fatal are described. It is hoped that the alphabetical arrangement of them, and the table of doses of the remedies usually employed in their treatment, will be found convenient.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A d104-Book of Legal Medicine This volume is prepared and published, primarily, as a help to medical students interested in Legal Medicine, but it is adapted as well to the needs of practitioners who wish to have the latest advances in Medical Jurisprudence at their service. The writer has ventured to cite illustrative cases for his text from the standard treatises of Forensic Medicine, and to these authors he desires to express his obligations; these he has supplemented with details from his own personal experience, which has been exceptionally full during the past twenty eight years, as a medical examiner for the city of Boston, his investigations having comprised during that period over eight thousand deaths, under a suspicion of violence. The departments of Toxicology and of the Mcdico-legal Relations of Psychiatry have been purposely omitted from the volume, inasmuch as they have acquired an importance deserving, in each instance, independent treatment by specialists. The author makes no apology for limiting himself to Massachusetts Statutes in his citations of the law, believing, as he does, that these citations represent the most progressive and most intelli.

Download or read book Medical Jurisprudence Classic Reprint written by Alfred Swaine Taylor and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-24 with total page 836 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Medical Jurisprudence Perhaps the early demand for a new American edition of Taylor's classical medical jurisprudence may in some measure be attrib ntable to the new features added at the time of the preceding Ameri can revision. The work was then brought thoroughly to date, and the law and judicial decisions both in Great Britain and the United States were introduced, together with a tabulation of cases and a reference to authorities. These changes made the work more serviceable to all classes in the two professions which it joins, increasing its hold as a favorite text-book in schools of medicine and law, rendering it even more useful to physicians in practice, and lawyers in the preparation of briefs and confirming its previous acceptance as an authority, by all English-speaking judicial tribunals. Since the issuance of the previous edition a strong impulse has been given to Forensic Medicine, by the International Congress of Medical Jurisprudence, by the Congress of Medical Jurisprudence of New York, 1895, and also by the special development of medico-legal Surgery in various societies. The present time, therefore, is most auspicious for the appearance of this new edit-ion, and it is fortunate that the demand for it comes at a time when these important advances can be represented. The increasing frequency of damage cases renders this department of medico-legal Surgery of growing importance. The eleventh American edition included the admirable work with which Dr. Thomas Stevenson had enriched the twelfth English edi tion, and was a thorough revision of all previous American and Eng lish editions. This present issue aims to continue this work along the same lines to the present date.h; The Editor desires to express his thanks and obligations to Surg Gen. George M. Sternberg, of the U. S. Army; Deputy surg.-gen. D. L. Huntington, l. D., U. S. Army; Capt. Pilcher, U. S. Army. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Medical Men and the Law: A Modern Treatise on the Legal Rights, Duties, and Liabilities of Physicians and Surgeons The title Of the book shows what it is, or at least what it is intended to be. I have endeavored to deal with all the main features in the modern law pertain ing to physicians and surgeons. Obviously, it is not intended in any way to interfere with existing text books known under the°title Of medical jurisprudence, but rather to supply the want, which many other persons have long felt, of a work of this Character. By careful selection it has been found possible to give all that is of substantial present importance within a volume of moderate Size. I hope that, written on these lines, the book may be useful to physicians and surgeons, and that it may not be unacceptable to many lawyers.

Download or read book Medical Jurisprudence written by Elmer D. Brothers and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Medical Jurisprudence: A Statement of the Law of Forensic Medicine For the last twenty years, the writer has been delivering a course of lectures on the subjects involved in this production, but during that time he has not been able to find a satisfactory text on the legal phase of the subject for recommendation to medical students. The medical features have been thoroughly discussed by many writers. Whatever the merit of this effort in supplying the desideratum, it embodies a brief explanation of those phases of the subject which he found most interesting and instructive to the student. No effort has been made to exhaust the subject but rather to abridge and condense wherever possible without sacrifice to completeness of exposition and accuracy in elucidation of fundamental principles. Liberal reference has been made to the authorities sustaining or justifying the propositions set forth and, while seldom quoting from decisions, the writer, wherever expedient and appropriate, has not hesitated to adopt the language of the courts in announcing and illustrating principles. References on important subjects are made to annotated cases where the student will find fuller illustrations of the application of the law to facts in adjudicated cases, the reference to L.R.A. being to the new series unless otherwise indicated, and to American and English Annotated Cases, being as A.C. Medical subjects are not discussed except where considered necessary to an exposition of the legal subjects or to illustrate the application of the legal principles announced.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Principles of Medical Jurisprudence: Designed for the Professions of Law and Medicine I have been careful as far as possible, in all cases, to make a distinct refe rence to the source from which the fact, principle, or case stated has been de rived. I have done this in the hope, not only of possessing the reader with the principle, and a brief outline of the case which illustrates it, but also, at the same time. Of placing before him such references as will enable him to make fuller investigations in regard to any point or principle he may be interested in studying. It is not, therefore, the exclusive design of this work, to supersede other and more voluminous works on the subjects embraced in it; but to furnish, in as intelligible and concise a form as possible, the substance of what they contain, with references to them for fuller discussions and minuter details of cases. At the same time, it aims to be sufficiently full and minute in its expo sition of facts, principles and illustrations, to possess the mind with such an amount of knowledge as may be necessary for all the general purposes for which it may be required.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from History and Philosophy of Medical Jurisprudence But law and medicine, although uniting in the pro duction of this third science, cannot be said to hold a divided empire over its practice; for law alone is, and must ever be, the supreme arbiter of human actions in society, nor can she surrender her authority over the temporal accountability of mankind without at the same time surrendering her life and her essential pre rogatives. The application of medical jurisprudence to the admeasurement of physical facts affecting the civil or criminal responsibility of parties, amounts practically only to this - that medicine furnishes the lights of her experience, and law applies them according to the es tablished rules of her tribunals, and as modified by the equities of each particular case. Thus the aid of medi cine is often invoked; she is even at times intrusted with the scales; but law always retains the sword, always retains the right of reviewing the judgement and prescribing the penalty. And this is but just. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
