Synopsis

Explore the physiology and pathology of the central nervous system through classic lectures by C. E. Brown-Séquard, delivered in 1858. This edition presents foundational ideas on how the spinal cord processes sensory and motor information.

The book gathers detailed discussions from lectures on how the nervous system works, with emphasis on the spinal cord’s role in sensation, reflexes, and movement. It also covers how pathological changes affect perception, reflexes, and motor control, using case discussions and plate explanations to illuminate complex concepts.

• Clear explanations of how sensitive and motor pathways interact in the spinal cord and brain.


• Insights into how pathological changes relate to clinical signs, including anesthesia, hyperesthesia, and reflex actions.


• Illustrated explanations of spinal cord anatomy and nerve pathways through the plate descriptions.


• Discussion of how peripheral impressions relate to central nervous system function, with observational cases cited.

Ideal for students of neuroscience and history of medicine, as well as practitioners seeking a historical view of neurophysiology.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
