Not illustrated. 1845 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER III. DREAMING. In perfect sleep, as we have elsewhere stated, there is a quiescence of all the organs which compose the brain; but when in consequence of some inward excitement, one organ or more continues awake, while the remainder are in repose, a state of incomplete sleep is the result, and we have the phenomena of dreaming. If, for instance, any irritation, such as pain, fever, drunkenness, or a heavy meal, should throw the perceptive organs into a state of action while the reflecting ones continue asleep, we have a consciousness of objects, colours, or sounds being presented to us, just as if the former organs were actually stimulated by having such impressions communicated to them by the external senses;* while, in consequence of the repose of the reflecting organs, we are unable to rectify the illusions, and conceive that the scenes passing before us, or the sounds that we hear, have a real existence. This want of mutual co-operation between the different organs of the brain accounts for the disjointed nature, the absurdities, and incoherencies of dreams.f This internal stimulation of particular organs without the concurrence of outward impressions by the senses, is more fully stated under the head of Spectral Illusions. Dr 1'ieruuin reports the following case illustrative of the action of the brain during the performance of the mental functions. It fell under his notice in oneof the hospitals of Montpellier, in the year 1821.--" The subject of it was a female, at the age of twenty-six, who had lost a large portion of her scalp, skull-bone, and dura inater in a neglected attack of lues venera. A corresponding portion of her brain was consequently bare, and subject to inspection. When she was in a dreamless sleep, ...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Mystery of Sleep I should be sorry to incur the suspicion of having sought to penetrate mysteries which are meant to be impenetrable, but I believe that the great Creator's works cease to be mysteries when their revelation will not expose them to profanation; nor do I doubt that the mysteries of sleep - like the mysteries of godliness, of charity, of the domes tic affections - will be revealed to us just so fast and so far as we prepare ourselves to receive them and carry their lessons into our daily lives. Were they studied with like incentives and by the same class of minds as the mysteries of natural science are now studied, the one would proba bly seem to us no more mysterious than the other, though the results might prove far more sur prising.

Download or read book Sleeping for Health Classic Reprint written by Edwin F. Bowers and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-16 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sleeping for Health OR five hundred thousand years or more human beings have been going to sleep. But only within a few score years have they had any definite idea why they slept. Even to-day, with all the data of experience, and the science that explains experience, the average man knows nothing about sleep as a process. And science knows but little more. There are any number of theories to account for sleep. But there is no general acceptance of any of these theories. The contentions of one school are ridiculed by the adherents of all other schools. So the average man, bewildered by the maze of contradictions, scuttles out of range of the contenders, composes himself, and - goes to sleep. He follows his instinct - therefore he is eternally right. In these pages I propose to consider, not so much the speculative and theoretical aspects of sleep, as to point out certain practical aspects of the matter things that everybody knows, but didn't know they knew until they were reminded of them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A page-turning novel that is also an exploration of the great philosophical concepts of Western thought, Jostein Gaarder's Sophie's World has fired the imagination of readers all over the world, with more than twenty million copies in print. One day fourteen-year-old Sophie Amundsen comes home from school to find in her mailbox two notes, with one question on each: "Who are you?" and "Where does the world come from?" From that irresistible beginning, Sophie becomes obsessed with questions that take her far beyond what she knows of her Norwegian village. Through those letters, she enrolls in a kind of correspondence course, covering Socrates to Sartre, with a mysterious philosopher, while receiving letters addressed to another girl. Who is Hilde? And why does her mail keep turning up? To unravel this riddle, Sophie must use the philosophy she is learning—but the truth turns out to be far more complicated than she could have imagined.
