OBSERVATIONS
ON
MENTAL DERANGEMENT, &c.
By ANDREW COMBE, M. D.
In the above work, dedicated to the elucidation of the Causes, Symptoms, Nature, and Treatment of the various Morbid States of the Brain and Nervous System which are productive of Insanity, the Author has endeavoured to apply the same pathological principles by which we are guided in our investigations into diseases of the other bodily organs, and to point out the analogy which subsists between many of these and the less familiar affections of the nervous system.
Dr Combe’s “work upon insanity is short, and sound, and modest, like all that gentleman’s writings, and richly deserving the perusal of every educated person, whether in the profession or not.”—Dr son’s Clinical Lecture on Insanity in Medical Gazette, No. CLXX.
“The work is not surpassed by any one of its kind in medical science.”—Medico-Chirurgical Review, No. XXXI.
