Item description from seller

London: H.K. Lewis, 15 Gower Street, North, 1863, 8°, IV, 50 pp., feine half cloth binding. Rare - Rirst Edition "Pinted for private curculation"! "An ambition to write treatises of synthetic science, rather than to pursue a career in academic philosophy, seems a better explanation of Hughlings Jackson's goal of a 'literary life'. In fact, Hughlings Jackson did write a book of synthetic science entitled 'Suggestions for Studying Diseases of the Nervous System on Professor Owen's Vertebral Theory', which he published for private circulation in early 1863. In this work he elaborated Richard Owen's theory that the skull develops from four embryological vertebrae, each of which innervates specific viscera. Each vertebro-visccral system has its own blood supply, sensory network and musculature. Hughlings Jackson supplied both the normal and the pathological anatomy of these systems, and suggested that each system had a distinct form of epilepsy. In the preface of this pamphlet he discounted the usefulness of this synthesis. Nevertheless, he continued to search for unifying neurophysiological principles." George K. York & David A. Steinberg: The Philosophy of Hughlings Jackson. J. Roy. Soc. Med., 95/6 (2002): pp. 314-318 "In 1862 Hughlings Jackson was appointed assistant physician to the Hospital for the Paralysed and Epileptic, and five years later he became a full physician. At the end of that year he published the pamphlet Suggestions for studying diseases of the nervous system, on Professor Owen's vertebral theory, in which he attempted to explain neurophysiology based on Dr. Owen's theory. He also became an assistant physician at the London Hospital (1863) and directed the Diagnostic Neurological programme, where he began to gain reputation and fame. In his chair at the London Hospital, in 1864, he unveiled his methodology for the analysis of the clinical picture, which related the injured tissue, the organ involved and the function affected. It was a threefold approach: pathology, anatomy and physiology of the disease; his major contribution to neurology, the fundamental principle of neurological diagnosis applied to the patient. Jackson's understanding of the partial crisis in cerebrovascular disease (CVD), the routine use of the ophthalmoscope and the reflex hammer are part of Jackson's legacy to neurology. " Pedro C. Covo: John Hughlings Jackson, un cientifico victoriano. Acta Neurol Colomb., 22/3 (2006): pp.257-260 (Text in Spain) John Hughlings Jackson (1835-1911) was a British neurologist whose studies of epilepsy, speech defects, and nervous-system disorders arising from injury to the brain and spinal cord helped to define modern neurology.
