[EAN: 9780428426767], Neubuch, [PU: Forgotten Books, United Kingdom], Language: English. Brand new Book. Excerpt from Essays on the Physiology of the Nervous System: With an Appendix on Hydrophobia To be serious, - ia the face of the authority of these eminent men, who hold by the ear, the one the philosophical, the other the physiological world, I believe that it can be established, that while facts and details have accumulated, they alone constitute all the progress that has been made; that not a step has been ta ken in advance, in the general doctrines of the science, since the time of Sir Charles Bell; that even his supposed discovery was, instead ofa step in advance, a step aside that, by placing what was, in reality, an attribute of mind, in a nerve, as a vis insita, and recognizing but a part of a truth as a whole, he has given a tangental impulse to the course of investigation, which has kept it off the track ever since. By endowing the anterior columns of the spinal marrow with a motor power, and the posterior columns with a sensitive power, he sanctioned and gave the chief impetus to subsequent inquiries into the reflex and automatic powers of the brain, ganglia and spinal cord, and the vital endowments of the nerves generally. If the mind or spiritual principle, as a real potential essence, active in the body, is lost sight of in these inquiries, it has been owing, in a great, measure, to the in?uence of his authority.
