Excerpt from Various Forms of Hysterical or Functional ParalysisThe nucleus of this little book was published last year in the Lancet in the form of four lectures. The records of several new cases have now been incorporated, and the discussion of the subject has, in reference to some points, been still further developed. I have also added three Appendices dealing with the scientific foundations upon the basis of which, together with careful clinical observation, the views here expressed have been gradually built up.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
