Book excerpt: Excerpt from Essays on the Physiology of the Nervous System: With an Appendix on Hydrophobia To be serious, - ia the face of the authority of these eminent men, who hold by the ear, the one the philosophical, the other the physiological world, I believe that it can be established, that while facts and details have accumulated, they alone constitute all the progress that has been made; that not a step has been ta ken in advance, in the general doctrines of the science, since the time of Sir Charles Bell; that even his supposed discovery was, instead ofa step in advance, a step aside that, by placing what was, in reality, an attribute of mind, in a nerve, as a vis insita, and recognizing but a part of a truth as a whole, he has given a tangental impulse to the course of investigation, which has kept it off the track ever since. By endowing the anterior columns of the spinal marrow with a motor power, and the posterior columns with a sensitive power, he sanctioned and gave the chief impetus to subsequent inquiries into the reflex and automatic powers of the brain, ganglia and spinal cord, and the vital endowments of the nerves generally. If the mind or spiritual principle, as a real potential essence, active in the body, is lost sight of in these inquiries, it has been owing, in a great, measure, to the influence of his authority.

Excerpt: ...proximate to the true one, and 'acts accordingly. But if we should hence say, that he experiences the true sensation on the same ground that he experiences the false one, we should be guilty of saying, that the child nurses the breast because he sucks his thumb. In the recent work of Professor Bowen, of Harvard College, on Metaphysics and Ethics, at page 228 of the second edition, the author, after admitting that such motions as the beating of the heart, the movements of respiration, and the peristaltic actions of the intestines, are properly automatic, or mechanical, qualifies his admission in a note, as follows: "To avoid misconception, I may here mention, once for all, that I use the common phraseology that is founded on the mechanical theory of nature's operations, or the doctrine of secondary causes, but without admitting the truth of that theory. In the former part, I endeavored to prove that all action or change in the purely material creation, must be attributed to the immediate agency of the creator. Still, for the convenience of speech, to avoid circumvolution and incessant reference to this doctrine, I continue to use the language that is sanctioned by universal custom, though it is derived from what seems to me a wholly unphilosophical and mistaken view." With this ingenious author, whom it is a pleasure at all times to read, I agree in this use of language, so far as it is adopted in reference to inorganic substances. It is allowable here, on a somewhat similar principle as the license adopted by mathematicians in the popular mode of squaring the circle. When a polygon is inscribed or circumscribed about a circle, it differs so little from its area that the amount of that difference may safely be thrown away for...

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Anatomy and Physiology of the Brain and Nervous System: An Essay Read to the Albany Phrenological Society, April 3, 1840 The organs of the circulation of blood, of nutrition, those of motion, of the voice and language, are, Iam disposed to believe, well understood by the members of this society. The theme of our remarks therefore will be those internal springs of action, on the particular and various activity of which, the motion of the machine depends, the nerves and the spinal marrow, the brain.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The history of the physiological sciences remains an open field of investigation for scholars from different disciplines. A recent shift of interest towards physiology as the mother of many contemporary biomedical disciplines, has been observed on both scientific and historical levels. Due to its unique richness and variety of facts, interpretations, theoretical models, and moreover unanswered questions, physiology remains a matter of considerable, historical and epistemological interest. For scholars interested in the experimental as well as the conceptual and theoretical aspects of the physiological sciences in their broader sense, and concerned by their place within the national and international frameworks of biomedical research, forms of cooperation have been proposed within the networks of the European Association for the History of Medicine and health. The present volume is the first publication of this cooperation. In this volume definite disciplines like neurophysiology and endocrinology, and comparative international aspects are under scrutiny by well established scientists and scholars, physiologists, historians and philosophers. A strong emphasis is placed upon neuroscientific topics like brain localization, functional architecture, physiological mechanisms, behavioral and integrative aspects of the neurosciences, neurotransmission. Local research traditions, national differences and forms of international communication are also examined.
