A distinguished physician once said that he had found "NERVES AND THE NERVOUS" most useful in helping some of his patients to carry on and not lose heart when they were passing through a period of nervous debility. Gratified that in its original form this little book thus achieved the object for which it was written, the Author now hopes that this new and largely re-written Edition will find still wider field of usefulness.

Why fear Middle Age? For the majority it should be the time of success, the age of fruition, the period of accomplishment. At forty a man is in the prime of life, whilst at fifty he is still well within the season of vitality and splendid endeavour. For woman Middle Age brings some ill-health certainly, but that should only be in passing, and for her the years past forty need have no terrors. Girlhood and youth lack many sweet gifts brought by the Fairy of Middle Age; experience brings contentment, and added powers of enjoyment. In society, in sport, as in her friendships and in her home, the woman of forty-five may still be a queen and yet look forward to a long and happy reign.
But good looks and nerve, athletic success and social charm are certainly more and more dependent on physical fitness and mental poise as the years go by after forty; health is, indeed, as essential to the enjoyment of middle life as in the more buoyant time of youth. In this little book the author holds out a helping hand to all who are looking anxiously at wrinkles, stray gray hairs, or their last record on the weighing machine; he gives them a bright and hopeful message with many useful hints on how to keep up and doing in the "forties" and "fifties" of life.
