Excerpt from On Concussion of the Spine, Nervous Shock and Other: Obscure Injuries of the Nervous System in Clinical and Medico-Legal Aspects The publication of a new edition has given me the opportunity of carefully revising this work and of making a few additions to the text, which, however, has been left substantially unchanged. In 1866 I published Six Lectures on certain obscure injuries of the nervous system commonly met with as the result of shocks to the body received in collisions on railways. My objects in that publication were to direct the attention of surgeons to a class of injuries that had hitherto been but little noted; to endeavor to throw some light on their true characters: and, lastly, to show that though they commonly arose from railway collisions, they were not peculiar to them, but might be the consequence of any of the more ordinary accidents of civil life. These Lectures attracted some attention at the time. They were translated into German by Dr. Kelp, of Halle, were republished in America, and have long been out of print in this country. In the present work will be found some of the results of my more recent and extended experience. In it the six original Lectures have been incorporated - not, however, without much alteration - and eight new Lectures have been added.
