No dust jacket. Francis Marion Pottenger Jr. (1901 - 1967) was an American physician and raw food diet advocate. He was best known for his cat study that sparked interest in a diet high in raw animal products including uncooked meats and unpasteurized dairy. Pottenger was a disciple of Canadian dentist and diet food advocate Weston A. Price. The Price-Pottenger Nutrition Foundation is named after Price and Pottenger. He was the son of Francis M. Pottenger Sr., the physician who founded the Pottenger Sanatorium and Clinic for Diseases of the Chest for treatment of tuberculosis in Monrovia, California.He was educated at Otterbein University and University of Cincinnati College of Medicine (M.D.). In 1940, Pottenger bought some of the cottages from the Monrovia sanatorium and founded the Francis M Pottenger Jr. Hospital. Until closing in 1960, the 42-bed hospital specialized in treating non-tubercular diseases of the lung, especially asthma. This is an important contribution to holistic medicine.

Excerpt from this book: "The discussion of the reflexes arising in or expressed in each organ as described in Part II is preceded by a statement of the innervation of the organ in question. The difficulty which the writer experienced in gathering this data from books on anatomy and physiology is sufficient assurance of the importance of making this data easily accessible to the clinician." From the publisher: "This book challenges the traditional view of medicine as neatly divided into specialties. The author, a specialist in chest diseases, argues that the human body is a complex, interconnected unit, and that no single organ can be understood in isolation. Drawing on the emerging field of visceral neurology, the author explores how diseases in one organ can trigger reflex reactions in other parts of the body. This 'pathologic physiology' approach sheds light on the hidden connections between seemingly disparate symptoms, offering a new lens through which to understand and interpret clinical observations. By delving into the crucial role of the vegetative nervous system and its interaction with the endocrine glands, the author bridges the gap between physical changes in tissues and the outward expression of disease. This deeper understanding of the body's internal communication network promises to revolutionize the way we diagnose and treat illness, placing the patient in all their complexity at the center of medical practice.".
