Diseases of the Nervous System
- Author:
Walshe,
O.B.E., M.D., D.Sc., F.R.C.P. Third edition. E. & S. Livingstone. Edinburgh. Pp. 350. Price 15s., postage 7d.
The first edition published in 1940 was reviewed in the October number of Mental Health of that year, and a note on the second edition appeared in Vol. II. No. 4, 1941. The price has been increased from 12s. 6d. to 15s. and the size of the book by some 25 pages. About a dozen new diagrams are included and there are new sections on occular movements, the pituitaryhypothalamic complex, infantile hemiplegia and sinus thrombosis. The author’s object is “a selective presentation of the elements of clinical neurology ” and he has resisted any suggestion to go beyond this. The fact that either a new edition or a reprint has been found necessary in each of the three years of the book’s existence testifies to its exceptional popularity. H C S
