Excerpt from Anatomy and Physiology of the Nervous System The preparation of this work has been undertaken in response to what experience in the class-room has shown to be the need of a text-book especially adapted to beginners - a book giving, by itself, a concise, but complete, presentation of the physiology of the nervous system, together with the more important features of its anatomy. In dealing with the physiological phase of the subject, it has seemed best, viewed from the students standpoint, to confine the statements mostly to the established and generally recognized facts, leaving the numerous theories - fully and admirably discussed in many contemporary works - to be taken up at a later stage of the study, after the facts have been acquired and mastered, this plan, it is found, being the most effective as a time-saver, and resulting in the clearest and most lasting impressions. The anatomical matter included in the volume is only that which seems most necessary fox an intelligent understanding of the physiology, and of the most frequent service in clinical work, the general text-book on anatomy always being available for further details. Both the structure and the various functions of the sympathetic system have been set forth with a fullness commensurate with their importance. Of the whole work condensation has been the guiding principle. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
