Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lectures on Nervous and Mental Diseases When the writer began to lecture on Nervous Diseases nine years ago he was surprised to find so few homeopathic works upon this important subject. As the years went by he waited anxiously for the appearance of a work combining the anatomy, physiology, pathology, and the homeopathic therapeutics, but none made its appearance. Several works have come out partially covering the field, but none to which the student could turn and find what he desired stated in a brief and condensed form. This fact led the writer to publish the lectures which follow as a text-book, covering the above points, and in addition show ing in what diseases benefits from the application of electricity may be expected, and the best methods of applying it in the various diseases considered. The basis of the work is the lectures delivered before the students of the Kansas City Homeopathic College for the past nine years. It includes the main facts which relate to mental and nervous diseases, gathered and condensed from the works of all schools, from journals, and every available source. In the preparation of this work the author has used freely from every available book and journal published on the subject of nervous and mental diseases and electro-therapeutics, so that the student not only gets the benefit of the writer's experience but also that of all the leading writers on these subjects. This information could only be found scattered through a greater number of books and journals than are within reach of students and practitioners in general. It has been the aim and endeavor of the writer to simplify the various subjects so that students and practitioners will easily understand them. In regard to the manner in which he has dealt with the various subjects, the words of Ruskin would apply where he says: Certainly it is excellent discipline for an author to feel that he must say all that he has to say in the fewest possible words, or his reader is sure to skip them; and in the plainest possible words, or his reader will certainly misunderstand them. Generally, also, a downright fact may be told in a plain way; and we want downright facts at present more than anything else.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Insanity and Its Treatment: Lectures on the Treatment of Insanity and Kindred Nervous Diseases The lectures which form the basis of the present volume were first prepared, and delivered before the Senior Class of the Boston University School of Medi cine, in the winter of1879 - 80. They were revised and again delivered at the session of 1880 - 81. Frequent inquiries were made by the students and others for the best work on insanity, one' giving at the same time a knowledge of homopathictherapeutics, but I was obliged to answer that, with the exception of Jahr's Mental Diseases, we had no treatise upon that subject; hence the attempt to supply the want by the publica tion of these lectures, imperfect as they are. Additions and changes have been made, and the book is now given, not as a complete text-book, but as containing a fairly correct summary of our present knowledge of insanity and its homopathic treatment.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Nervous and Mental Diseases IT is the object of the author to bring together in the following chapters such matter in relation to the definition, classification, etiology, pathology, symptomatology, and treatment of insanity as will be of actual practical value to the medical student and general practitioner. The seeker after special information and deeper knowledge of the complex subject Of morbid psychology must be referred to the many profound works which deal with this exclusively. These chapters are based upon my clinical lectures given at the Manhattan State Hospital for the Insane and at the Randall's Island Asylum for Idiots during the past four or five years, to the students of the College of Physicians and Surgeons of Columbia University, and to the students of the Woman's Medical College of the New York Infirmary. They, there fore, embody only the facts which I believe to be the most serviceable and useful to those who are often practically concerned with the early diagnosis and prognosis of insanity, and who must be the first arbiters as to the course Of care and treatment to be pursued.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Modern Treatment of Mental Nervous Disorders: A Lecture Delivered at the University of Manchester, on 25th March 1918 In the Middle Ages the phenomena which we nowascribe to mental or nervous disorder were thought to be due to evil Spirits which inhabited the body of their victim, and the patient was said to be possessed by devils. It followed that the only treatment practised in those times was the employment of exorcism, ceremonials and incantations. This was also the age Of witchcraft, and it seems clear that the greater number of those accused of witchcraft were persons whom we should now class as. Neurotic or insane, and who then suffered death for the crime of being merely ill. The procedures of the famous witch trials were Often based on the detection of symptoms which are commonplaces in the modern nerve hospital. One such symptom, for example, was the existence of a patch of insensitive skin some where on the body of the alleged witch, a symptom known then as the devil's claw, and now by the less lurid name of hysterical anaesthesia. These ancient superstitions have more than a merely historical interest, because their effect has lasted through the centuries, and is to be seen to-day in the stigma which still attaches to mental disease. The fear, the feeling of something uncanny and mysterious, the desire for concealment from the eyes of our neighbour, which continue to characterise the general attitude towards insanity, have at least one of their roots in these old conceptions which regarded insanity as a manifestation of the supernatural and demoniacal.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lectures on Diseases of the Nervous System: Especially in Women The case to which I drew your attention at my last clinic is here again, a girl, rather wanting in the signs of sexual ripeness, although sixteen years old. You will recall the fact that she lost the use of the right arm because of having been alarmed. The scare brought on what every woman knows as an attack of hysterics - our ancestors called it the vapors. The girl cried and laughed by turns, and then had a slight fit, on coming out of which she could no longer lift her right arm, or rather she could lift it but a few inches. On finding this to be the case, she grew much concerned, and by and by could not lift it at all, the idea that it could not be raised helping, as is apt to be the case, to make the trouble worse.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lectures on Diseases of the Nervous System: Delivered at Guy's Hospital In presenting this work to my readers, I may fairly be expected to preface it with a few words of explanation. In the year 1868 a part of my course on Medicine delivered at Guy's Hospital relating to nervous diseases was published in a periodical form. Ever since that time the lectures have been frequently perused by my pupils, who have constantly demanded of me their reprint in a separate form. To this appeal, so often made, I now respond in the present volume. It contains my original lectures with the additional matter which a subsequent ten years has enabled me to accumulate. Much of this has already appeared in the Guy's Hospital Reports, ' but its repetition in this volume was inevitable, since it is evident that the cases which have been thought of snifi cient importance to publish separately would necessarily be the most valuable ones with which to illustrate my lectures.
