Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book represents the author's substantial research into the then-nascent field of nervous system pathology. It introduces the concept of the nervous system comprising three distinct subdivisions: the cerebral (voluntary), the true spinal (excitomotory), and the ganglionic (nutrient). Their functions, pathologies, and interrelationship are examined in detail. The author posits that a whole series of illnesses considered at the time to be cerebral in origin, such as epilepsy, tetanus and stuttering, are, in fact, diseases of the excito-motory system. He terms the former "centric" and the latter "eccentric," and the distinction is important, for while the former is largely incurable, the latter can generally be treated. This book marked a significant advancement in the understanding of the relationship between the nervous system and a range of previously poorly understood diseases. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Seller Inventory # 9781334521133_0
