Med. Jb., 1882/1. - Wien, Wilhelm Braum�ller, 1882, 8�, 141, (1) pp., mit 7 z.T. farb., lith. Tafeln, orig. Broschur. First Edition! Nathan Weiss (May 8, 1851 - September 13, 1883) studied medicine in Vienna, earning his doctorate in 1874. He worked as secondary physician at the Allgemeines Krankenhaus in Vienna, and in 1879 became habilitated for internal medicine. Weiss is remembered for pioneer systematic research of the spinal marrow, medulla oblongata and basal ganglia, and in 1881 showed a causal relationship between tetany and the removal of goitre. The eponymous "Weiss' sign" is named after him, which today is usually referred to as "Chvostek's sign". Among his written works is a treatise on tetany (�ber Tetanie) that is included in Richard von Volkmann's Sammlung klinischer Vortr�ge. A friend of Sigmund Freud, Weiss committed suicide on September 13, 1883 at the age of 32, shortly after returning from his honeymoon. A few months prior to his death, he was appointed head of the outpatient clinic for nervous diseases at Vienna General Hospital. -cf. Wiki. Seller Inventory # 50114
