Excerpt from Illustrations of the Influence of the Mind Upon the Body in Health and Disease, Designed to Elucidate the Action of the Imagination, Vol. 1Since the former edition of this work there has been a remarkable increase in the amount of intelligent interest felt in the more subtle relations existing between Mind and Body, and, happily, physicians of acknowledged position have devoted their attention to the study of psychical phenomena too often neglected even by those whose special province it is to determine their nature and to enlighten the public mind as to what is real on the one hand, and what is either fancy or fraud on the other.The author feels that he cannot too strongly emphasize the position taken by him in this work, namely, that he only aspires to lay down and illustrate certain psycho-physical principles which appear clearly recognisable in the light of modern physiology.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
