DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from Nerve Control and How to Gain It Selection, expansion, and rearrangement have been made with reference particularly to the prevention, as well as the cure, of the functional nervous troubles so common to day. No book, it should be clearly under stood, can be of more than incidental help to the victim of an organic nervous disease. His chief reliance must always be on the skill of his physician. So, too, as is repeat edly insisted in subsequent -pages, many functionally nervous patients are so condi tioned that expert treatment of a special kind is imperatively needed by them. But of functional nervousness in general it may be said with assurance that much can be done in the way of self-cure. It is mainly a question of learning to think healthfully and learning to live healthfully. The nervous dyspeptic, the nervous insomniac, all the great army of the nervously run down, are essentially Victims of wrong modes of thinking and living. If they can be induced to think and live aright, their ills fall from them. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe March 1930 issue of the rare pulp magazine SUBMARINE STORIES, which lasted for thirteen issues and so must count as one of the more successful of the hyper-specialized pulps. Long prized by collectors as a curiosity, too scarce and valuable to be actually read, it turns out to be quite an entertaining magazine, containing stories by such pulp stalwarts as George Fielding Eliot (author of the grisly WEIRD TALES classic "The Copper Bowl") and Alan R. Bosworth, a prolific pulp writer who appeared in everything from ARGOSY to UNKNOWN WORLDS. Here too is a vivid first-hand account of undersea warfare by a genuine German U-boat captain.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from The Conduction of the Nervous Impulse In one sense it has been obvious from the first that the student of the central nervous system has common interest with the investigator of peripheral nerve. One of the chief concerns of the latter is to discover the physico-chemical change which is the basis of conduction; and, as Sherrington has said, the intimate nature of conduction is a problem coextensive with the existence of nerve cells, and enters into every question regarding the specific reactions of the nervous system. But when the student of conduction in peripheral nerve leaves aside the physico-chemical theory of the nervous impulse and attempts merely to investigate in detail the phenomena of conduction, then it has seemed to many that his work becomes academic, and loses touch with the great human interests of the nervous system. Conduction in peripheral nerves is a rigid affair, seeming to lack just those features, Inhibition, Summation, Rhythm, After-discharge, which give to central conduction its flexibility and its means Of adaptation to specific ends. There is no need to press this point further the differences between peripheral conduction and conduction in the reflex arc form a common theme for the academic essay of the elementary student.

Just as it takes definite, conscious, per sistent effort to change the contour of a muscle, so does it take definite persistent effort to change a trend of thought and the resultant arrangement and shape of brain cells - hence one 's nature.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from The Elementary Nervous System These misunderstandings, for such they are, can be swept away at once and the matter put in its true light when we recognize that our sensations are not located in the peripheral parts. Affected, but in the central nervous system, and within that portion of it known as the cere bral cortex. As long as this organ is intact, sensations may arise, and, though these are usually due to nervous impulses fromthe sensory surfaces, they may be called forth by an internal stimulus as well. Thus it is that a missing arm may be represented by sensations years after it has been severed from the body. With a loss of an appropriate part of the cerebral cortex, however, comes a loss Of sensation that is absolute and final. From this there is no recovery (parker, 1916 b). This modern View of the relation Of sensation to the nervous system was initiated by the anatomists and physiologists of the Renaissance. Thus, Vesalius taught.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from Just Nerves This is certainly a good book on a difficult subject a sane, modest, helpful, and encouraging book based on a true philosophy of life, verified and corrected on every page by the practical experience of a successful physician to nervous in valids. Here is the point which Dr. Riggs makes clear in his booklet. Most of these in valids are real, not imaginary, sufferers. But the cause of their suffering is not so much a nervous disease as it is a nervous disorder, The way to cure that is to re establish the right order: the reasonable rule, the self-control which is the secret of spiritual and physical health.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from Nervous Force: Its Origin and Physiology Of the manner in which nerve force is eliminated we know little, but that it is in some way through the nerve centres we are convinced. Experiment has proved this, and at the same time established the fact of its close correlation to the other forces. When the nerve centers are destroyed or paralyzed, not only is the production of nerve force stopped, but the body quickly cools. Upon sending a current of electricity along the course of the nerves, the bodily heat or temperature rises, so closely are these forces connected. If an organic body be deprived of light, not only is nervous force diminished, but the temperature is lowered. We have all known persons whose hair during conditions of nervous excitement would stand on end, and from whom at such times could be drawn distinct electric shocks. I know a man who, by inducing a restless, agitated nervous state in favorable atmospheric condition, can light a gas jet by simply holding his finger tip to the burner. These states are always succeeded by nervous depression, undoubtedly due to a loss of nervous power. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
