Présentation de l'éditeur
This course of lectures, delivered during the winter of 1874- 75, was not originally intended for publication; but, at the urgent and repeated request of many of the alumni of the Missouri Medical College, the author has devoted all possible moments of leisure, whilst not engaged in his professional duties, to revising, correcting, and preparing for the press the copious notes taken by V. Biart, M.D., his former pupil. In offering this volume to the profession, the author cannot,,, as an inducement to its perusal, claim for it originality either as to its facts or as to its theories. It is particularly designed for students and practitioners who have neither the time nor the opportunity for recourse to numerous authorities, the aim being to present a thorough digest of the extensive field of medical literature on the subject of nervous diseases, and at the same time, so far as is consistent with a true portraiture of the maladies delineated and a clear idea of their characteristic features, to avoid, difiuseness of detail and of description. The author feels it incumbent upon him to express his grateful acknowledgments to the following writers, from whose works he has freely quoted, viz., Elam, Storer, Carpenter, Morel, Niemeyer, Jaccoud, J. Lewis Smith, West, Russell Reynolds, Hammond, Maudsley, Blandford, Schroeder vander Kolk, Sheppard, Todd, Tanner, A itken, Flint, Hughlings Jackson, Da Costa, Ray, J. P. Gray, Echeverria, Clymer, A nstie, Buzzard, Trousseau,
