For the psychoanalyst there is no better general compendium of information about modern neurology than this book. Particularly useful and stimulating will he find the chapters on the vegetative nervous system, and on the anatomy and physiology of the blood supply of the central nervous system.

The book is written from a purely organic point of view, and is concerned solely with organic disease of the nervous system. As such, it is a useful reference book both for careful factual data, and as a guide to the modern literature on any particular topic.

It is pleasant to note that many of the stylistic imperfections of the first edition have been corrected in this second edition.
