he author believes that the sympathetic nervous system is the scat 
of organic and emotional life, as the cerebro-spinal nervous system is 
the seat of animal life, including thought, reason, judgment, perception, 
and will. Wrd, according to Dr. Bedell, fs the joint production of the 
two nervous systems, the cerebro-spina! and the sympathetic. To the 
latter she gives the name first given’ by Bichat—the abdominal brain, 
The cerebro-spinal system is stronger in men, and the sympathctic is 
stronger in women; and according to Dr. Bedell’s theory, in the repro- 
duction of our kind the mother contributes the organic part of our con- 
stitution, and the father the cerebro-spinal. The author has evidently 
given much thought to this subject, and she works out her case with 
great ingenuity and cogency.
