About this book
A System of Practical Medicine by American Authors, Volume 4, is a comprehensive and authoritative medical reference work from the late 19th century, edited by William Pepper, M.D., LL.D., and published in 1886. This volume is part of a multi-volume set that brings together the expertise of leading American physicians of the era, offering in-depth coverage of diseases, their diagnosis, and treatment. Volume 4 specifically focuses on diseases of the nervous system, including detailed discussions on the anatomy, physiology, and pathology of the brain, spinal cord, and peripheral nerves. It covers a wide range of neurological disorders such as epilepsy, paralysis, neuralgia, meningitis, and various forms of insanity, providing both theoretical insights and practical guidance for clinicians. The text is richly detailed, reflecting the medical knowledge and practices of its time, and includes case studies, clinical observations, and references to contemporary research. Designed for both students and practicing physicians, this volume serves as an invaluable historical resource, illustrating the evolution of neurology and internal medicine in the United States.
