Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Treatment of Nervous Disease
The idea which underlies the structure and arrangement of these lectures is that the physio logical function of the particular part of the nervous system which in each case happens to be affected determines the variety of treatment required. Consequently, in the case of all the lesions of any particular set of neurones identical or analogous in function, there is much in common as regards the therapeutic measures which ought to be adopted. It will be found, for example, that as regards the various lesions which may affect the lower motor neurone and the several diseases hereby produced, the lines of treatment are fundamentally and in essence the same, though in detail they may and do differ according to the precise nature of the morbid process and the exact point of its attack.
