"An interesting theory in explanation of many cases of insomnia and insanity is brought forth and illustrated by Dr. Henry S. Upson of Cleveland, in his book on ‘Insomnia and Nerve Strain.’ Dr. Upson believes that very many cases of mania, melancholia, and dementia are caused by defective teeth.
“The work is technical, and for the profession rather than the lay reader. It will doubtless prove of great value as a contribution to the warfare being waged against the mental scourges that fill our asylums with young people on the threshold of productive activity.”—Cleveland Plain Dealer.
“Dr. Upson is, we believe, the first medical practitioner to write extensively on this topic and the first to accompany his writing with skiagraphs relating to his cases. His enthusiasm in this matter may be the means of arousing a greater interest in it than hitherto has been manifested by physicians.”—New York Times.
“The author has presented his conceptions in a most attractive and entertaining manner and time alone will say whether his deductions will rest on true scientific ground. The treatment of insomnia if carried out along the lines suggested will not only benefit a great number of distressing conditions but will undoubtedly curtail the indiscriminate use of hypnotics at present prevailing.
“The closing chapter by Lodge on the technic of dental skiagraphy will prove valuable to many engaged in this branch of practice. The excellence of the reproductions is a pleasing feature of the work.”—Cleveland Medical Journal.
