Abstract

This little book deals with the hysterical disturbances of the special senses. The cases cited are cases of conversion hysteria. Their story is told very -entertainingly and interestingly. There is nothing new in the book, except the peculiarities of the symptomatology contributed by the war situation. The author takes his subject very seriously and seems to think that he has really made a very important contribution. There is no effort at a psychoanalytic interpretation of the symptoms.
