Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Diseases of the Spinal Cord In the following pages, which are based on a portion of my course of Lectures on Medicine, I have endeavoured to give a concise description of the more important points relating to the Diseases of the Spinal Cord. In some places the original form is retained, but for the most part I have, for the sake of condensation, abandoned the colloquial style of the lecture-room, and in many places arranged the matter in the form of headings. Believing that one great secret of all successful teaching is to teach by the eye as well as by the ear, I am in the habit of copiously illustrating my lectures by diagrams, drawings, and microscopical preparations. The diagrams and drawings are introduced into the text in the form of woodcuts, the microscopical sections are represented in colours. The chromo-lithographs are all drawn by myself, first with the camera lucida, and then in lithograph chalk; they are with two exceptions (figures 56 and 151, which are copied from Charcot) representations of my own sections.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Diagnosis of Diseases of the Brain and of the Spinal Cord Many readers of my Diagnosis of Diseases of the Spinal Cord have asked me for a book, similar in scope and method, dealing With the symptoms and methods of diagnosis of Diseases of the Brain. In response to that request, I publish these Lectures, delivered at Uni versity College Hospital. I have left the Lectures very much in the' form in which they Were delivered, believing that thus they Will be most useful. The account of the diagnosis of the nature of, .the lesion, contained in the concluding Lectures, is intended rather to impress on the student the methods of diagnosis and the most important distinctions between the various dis eases, than to furnish an exhaustive description of these distinctions. At the same time, I believe that those given Will enable a diagnosis to be made in the majority of the cases that the student or practitioner is likely to encounter.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lectures on Diseases of the Spinal Cord The lectures published in this book were taken from those delivered at the Faculty of Medicine in the summer of 1891. Although but little altered, some works which appeared during the course of their publication were of such great importance that it seemed unwise to neglect them, and they were consequently utilized by me. I have advisedly given the name of "Lectures" to this publication, more freedom of speech being thus allowed, while it may constantly be recognized during its perusal that the book is specially written for the purpose of "teaching." Since some diseases only of the spinal cord are described in this book, I have endeavoured to discuss these as completely as possible. Numerous works have been consulted upon this branch of nervous pathology, care being taken to name their authors, although it did not accord with the plan of this publication to indicate the name of every book to which allusion is made. Those mentioned have been somewhat arbitrarily chosen, their importance, their novelty, and the difficulty in obtaining them being specially considered. Little will be found in this work about the pathology of any special symptom. Thus I have purposely omitted to discuss the mechanism of the inco-ordination which occurs in tabes. Our knowledge with respect to this and other similar conditions is so rudimentary, and the opinions expressed about them are so contradictory that, as I believe, it is better to await a more propitious epoch before doing this. The study of AEtiology on the other hand owing to the immense progress made in general pathology is steadily advancing; to this portion of the subject I have devoted special attention, since it is from a knowledge of it that Therapeutics worthy of the name must be derived. The symptoms have also been carefully studied. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Diagnosis of Diseases of the Spinal Cord The following pages contain an address, delivered in October, 1879, to the members of the Medical Society oi Wolverhampton, at whose request it is now published in a separate form. It appeared, as delivered, in the Medical Times and Gazette for November and December. In revising it, numerous additions have been made, in order to render the outline of the subject more complete. These additions have increased the length of the lecture, but I have thought it better to leave its form unaltered, beyond a division into sections for more convenient reference. Some illustrations have been added, which may assist the reader Who is not familiar with the normal and patho logical anatomy of the spinal cord. For one of these Eg. 3, an illustration which I supplied to the eighth edition of Quain's Anatomy - I am indebted to the courtesy of Messrs. Imngnians.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Manual of Diseases of the Nervous System, Vol. 1: Diseases of the Nerves and Spinal Cord Such a classification helps us to obtain clearer views of the primary relations of disease, but is not convenient for systematic description. For this a hybrid system is necessary, in which organic and structural diseases are classified according to their scat, - in the nerves, spinal cord, or brain. With each group may be placed some nutritional or functional maladies of local incidence. The bulk of these diseases are, however, best considered separately, after the organic diseases have been described, since many of them are of wide distribution or uncertain seat.

This book was released on 2015-08-05 with total page 466 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pathological and Practical Researches on Diseases of the Brain and the Spinal Cord It is a matter of the utmost delicacy for a physician to obtrude upon the profession his general statements, in regard either to the phenomena of disease, or the action of remedies. The value of such statements does not depend upon his veracity only, but, must likewise rest in a very great degree, upon the character which he bears as a philosophical observer, and the extent of the observations on which his conclusions are founded. Hence arises the hesitation with which we receive all general statements, when made by persons with whose opportunities of observation and habits of induction we are not acquainted; and the importance which we attach to a simple record of facts, in a concise and accessible form, apart both from hypothesis and system.

This book was released on 2017-11-08 with total page 746 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Manual of Diseases of the Nervous System, Vol. 1 A classification of Diseases of the Nervous System, at once scientific, exact, and convenient for systematic description, is not at present possible. If we attempt to classify the diseases according to either seat or nature, we are met at once by difficulties which prevent any complete arrangement. These difficulties arise from the fact that many diseases affect more than one part of the nervous system, that the precise seat of other maladies is unknown, and that we are still ignorant of the nature of a considerable number of diseases. A rough division is often made into two broad classes of organic and functional disease. The first class, that of organic diseases, comprehends those in which there is always a visible lesion, manifesting sometimes the morbid process which constitutes the disease, sometimes only the ultimate result of that process. The second class, that of functional diseases, is less definite, comprehending (1) those diseases that consist only in a disturbance of function, and are there fore properly so designated; and (2) many diseases which have this in common with true functional disease, that they are transient and not permanent, and that they are not known to depend on organic changes. But there is also a large class of diseases in which no constant lesion has been discovered, but which are not transient, and cannot well be placed in either of these classes. This simple classification is therefore inadequate. It may be well to consider in what respect it needs alteration to meet the requirements of our present knowledge.

Many gentlemen who attended my lectures have expressed a hope that I would publish them. From conversations with numerous professional friends I am led to believe that busy practitioners still feel the want of a small and plainly written work on the subject. This little volume, then, is chiefly intended for them and for students. I hope, too, that it may serve as an introduction to the more valuable and standard works of Ross, Gowers, Bramwell, Buzzard, and others. I must express the great obligation under which I lie to my friend Mr. Jordan Lloyd, for his kindness in reading over and correcting the proof sheets.

This book was released on 2017-09-16 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Diagnosis and Treatment of Surgical Diseases of the Spinal Cord and Its Membranes The present volume is a record of personal experiences in the surgical treatment of diseases and injuries of the spinal cord and its adnexa. As all work must be in part based on the labors of the past, an account of the experiences of a single worker must include much that has been learned from others. The attempt has been made to keep the book from extending beyond its proper limits - a consideration of the diagnosis and treatment of diseases of the spinal cord that may require surgical interference - and all matter which belongs more properly to text-books on neurology or general surgery has been given the briefest mention. A certain amount of neurology has been included because the author is convinced that only those can do successful neurologic surgery who have gained a working knowledge of organic neurology. It has been the good fortune of the writer to be closely associated in his work with the neurologists of the New York Neurological Institute and of Mount Sinai Hospital, New York City, and it is with pleasure that the author expresses his indebtedness to Dr. Pearce Bailey, Dr. Joseph Collins, Dr. Frederick Peterson, Dr. Bernard Sachs, Dr. I. Abrahamson and their associates. It may occasion some surprise that hematomyelia and spinal gliosis are included in a work on the Surgical Diseases of the Spinal Cord. In these diseases, much harm is done to the fiber tracts by compression, and the relief of this compression by surgical means, has already resulted in marked improvement in a number of patients. The time is at hand when selected cases will be regularly subjected to operative interference. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Diagnosis of Diseases of the Brain, Spinal Cord, Nerves, and Their Appendages By the application of a true system of pathology, hygiene, and therapeutics, practical medicine is so directed that it does not interrupt the processes of nature, but assists their development, by placing the individual in the best circumstances for the accomplishment of their destined results. Little more than this can be either expected, or desired: but for the application of such a system the essential pre-requisite is diagnosis; understanding by that word the recognition of an indi vidual case as belonging to a certain category of disease, the general laws of which form part of the systematic science; so that the particular casein ques tion is thus known to have a certain probable issue, and to require a special kind of medicinal, general, and social treatment.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Nervous and Mental Diseases There are undoubtedly exceptional cases of spinal cord disease such as Babinski has described in which there is great increase of tonicity with exaggerated ten don re exes and with at times permanent extension of the large toe in which defensive movements can be obtained by stimulation of the skin up to the area cor responding to the lower limit of the lesion. But these cases are necessarily rare, and we must finally conclude that in the usual run of spinal-cord cases the pathologic re exes of defense are not of distinct diagnostic impor tance.
