A MANUAL
OF
DISEASES OF THE NERVOUS
SYSTEM.
Within the past few years the treatment of Diseases of the Nervous System has grown up into a recognised speciality in the Medical Profession. Recent investigations, physiological, clinical, and pathological, have cast a flood of light upon its study, and it possesses—as a separate field of practice—Special Hospitals, and a voluminous and rapidly extending literature.
Under these circumstances the Author, although fully conscious of the extreme difficulty of presenting, within a small compass, an adequate view of our present knowledge, feels that a concise introduction to neuro-pathology may not be unacceptable to students and junior practitioners. It will be his endeavour to give the results of the best work by the many distinguished physicians, both English and Foreign, who have so completely made this department of medicine their own; to impart as much practical information as possible; to give an analysis of the principles which ought to govern our treatment of diseases of the Nervous System; and to direct especial attention to the importance of early diagnosis. He hopes to omit nothing really essential, and to make the work a safe and trustworthy guide to the practice of the speciality upon which it will treat.
