Book Description
Excerpt from British and Foreign Medico-Chirurgical Review, 1864, Vol. 33: Or Quarterly Journal The difficulties met with in the study of the structure and functions of the central nervous organs depend chiefly on the great complexity of their organization. To the anatomist, the softness and delicacy of the component elements obstruct and render difficult microscopic elucidation, whilst the physiologist studying the results of vivisections on animals has to contend with, 1st, the difficulty of ascertaining phenomena in themselves subjective-; and 2ndly, in instances when this is no obstacle, and in which the results are sufficiently objective, he has still the difficulty of being able to divide or to irritate one part without at the same time operating on others. Remembering these things, it will not appear strange that, in reference to the structure and functions of the spinal cord, opposite and conflicting opinions should still be entertained. In regard to the method of investigating structure, there is but one plan which, with more or less modification of detail, is now generally adopted. This consists in hardening the organ by chromic acid, or alcohol, so that thin sections can be made, which may be rendered transparent by turpentine, chloride of calcium, &c. By maceration in carmine, observation may in some points be facilitated. By the study of many hundreds of such preparations, something like a general plan of the structure of this complex organ may be arrived at. We feel that to enter into an account of anatomical details would only perplex and weary the general reader; but an idea of the plan or type of structure to which these details lead cannot fail to interest the most practical mind, since some conception of structure is essential to an understanding of healthy and diseased function. In histological language, the spinal cord may be defined as a reticulated column of connective-tissue, containing in its substance blood-vessels, and in its meshes nerve-fibres and nerve-cells. It consists, in fact, of nervous and non-nervous elements, the latter being subservient and secondary to the former. It is only quite recently that anatomists have recognised the existence of a considerable amount of connective-tissue in the spinal cord, and here as everywhere we owe much to the researches of Virchow.

Excerpt from The British and Foreign Medico-Chirurgical Review, or Quarterly Journal of Practical Medicine and Surgery, Vol. 35: January-April, 1865 Let us inquire, then, in the first place, what we have gained from all these labourers by way of addition to our stock of sanitary knowledge, or of confirming and rendering more accurate and precise the leading doctrines of sanitary science. We cannot perhaps effect this in a more satisfactory manner than by considering some of the leading questions of the day under distinct heads.

Book Description
Excerpt from The British and Foreign Medico-Chirurgical Review, Vol. 47: Or Quarterly Journal of Practical Medicine and Surgery; January April, 1871 Professor Rollrston's long-promised work has at length appeared. This volume, from its intrinsic importance as well as the distinguished position and reputation of its author, demands special examination and candid criticism. Our first impression is one of disappointment. We had hoped for a book which, while it faithfully reproduced the accepted results of previous workers, should yet bear the stamp of originality; which should be written in a style of clear composition unburdened by needless technicalities, and which, lastly, should be of use, not merely to members of Professor Rolleston's class, but to all persons who can understand the English language. Now what do we find? Professor Rolleston's book can scarcely, even by the most partial Oxford friend, be termed original: its best points are borrowed from Gegenbaur's 'Grundziige der Vegleich ende Anatomiethe style bristles with the most recondite terms of Germanic origin; while each sentence, probably from a laudable desire to save space, has been compressed into so narrow a compass that sense is too often sacrificed to brevity. Finally, as the illustrative specimens exist in the Oxford Museum only, we fear that few but Oxford men can derive much benefit from a perusal of the book. We now proceed to consider it in detail.

Book Description
Excerpt from The British and Foreign Medico-Chirurgical Review, or Quarterly Journal of Practical Medicine and Surgery, Vol. 30: July-October, 1862 For a text, the three works at the top of this article have been selected. A few words regarding each. First on the list is the third edition of a work which, in our opinion, is the most complete physio logical text-book of the day. In its preface the author remarks, that the feature which chiefly distinguishes this from the preceding edition, is the great enlargement of the chapter on General Nerve Physiology. In his attempt to give a digest of the voluminous and scattered litera ture of this subject, we think the author has been highly successful, and in what follows, let it be understood that we have closely followed the order adopted by Funke.
