Excerpt from A d104-Book on Mental Diseases: For the Use of Students and Practitioners of Medicine The Science of Mental Diseases advances so rapidly that there is no apology needed for new treatises. All modern English, French, and German hooks on the subject have proved highly instructive, and have served to educate the profession in a most important branch of medical knowledge. An endeavor is here made to set forth in a condensed but comprehensive manner the present state of the Science of Mental Diseases. The book is made to embrace the wide range of the history, statistics, nosology, etiology, clinical course, symptomatology, pathology, diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment of Mental Disorders. An attempt has been made to introduce such clear and systematic subdivisions as would best tend to facilitate the comprehension of the whole subject and render the work available for students and practitioners of medicine. The book aims to be a practical guide to the diagnosis and treatment of all the various types of Insanity with which the physician has to deal in public hospitals or private practice, and also to serve as a work of ready reference for psychiatrists, in the emergencies of their specialty. Parts of the treatise may merit the attention of psychologists and of all interested in the study of mental pathology.
