Lectures on Nervous Diseases. 



From the Stand-Point of Cerebral and Spinal Localization, and 



THE Later Methods Employed in the Diagnosis and 



Treatment of these Affections. 



By Ambrose L. Ranney, A.M., M.D., Professor of tlie Anntom^y nnd 

 Pliysioloiiy of the Nervous System in the New York Post-Graduate 

 Medical Scliool and Hospital ; Professor of Nervous and Mental Diseases 

 in the Medical Department of the University of Vermont, etc. ; Author 

 of "The Applied Anatomy of the Nervous System," " Practical Medical 

 Anatomy," etc., etc. 



It is now generally conceded that the nervous system controls all 

 of the pliysi'cal functions to a greater or less extent, and also that most 

 of the symptoms encountered at the bedside can be explained and 

 interpreted from the stand-point of nervous physiology. 



Profusely illustrated with original diagrams and sketches in color 

 by the author, carefully selected wood-engravings, and reproduced photo- 

 graphs of typical cases. One handsome royal octavo volume of 780 pages.

We are glnd to note that Dr. Ranney has 

 published in book form his admirable lectures 

 on nervous diseases. His book contains over 

 seven hundred large pages, and is profusely 

 illustrated with original diagrams and sketches 

 ,n colors, and with many carefully selected 

 wood-cuts and reproduced photographs of 

 typical cases. A large amount of valuable 

 information, not a little of which has but 

 recently appeared in medical literature, is pre- 



sented in compact form, and thus made easily 

 accessible. In our opinion, Dr. Ranney's book 

 ought to meet with a cordial reception at the 

 hands of the medical profession, for, even 

 though the author's views may be sometimes 

 open to question, it cannot be disputed that 

 his work bears evidence of scientific method 

 and honest opinion. — American Jouriial of

By Mary Olmsted Stanton. Copiously illustrated. Two large 

 Octavo volumes. 



Tlie author, Mrs. Mary 0. Stanton, has given over twent}'^ years to 

 the preparation of this work. Her style is easy, and, by her happy 

 method of illustration of every point, the book reads like a novel and 

 memorizes itself. To physicians the diagnostic information conveyed is 

 invaluable. To the general reader each page opens a new train of ideas.
