Sinossi

Excerpt from On Aether and Chloroform as Anæsthetics: Being the Results of About Administrations of Those Agents Personally Studied in the Hospitals of London, Paris, During the Last Ten Years

It may be and often is objected, that though chloroform is a new, if not ephemeral, it is also a very diminutive subject, scarcely deserving of much attention - that, in a word, any unqualified nurse or assistant with com mon steadiness of hand may administer it. N O doubt chloroform is a small subject: I have made a small book on purpose as a sort of manual; still, as engaging medical men with the study and phenomena of conscious ness and the relation of external sensations to ideas in the mind, it is a subject of the very deepest interest, and one, if I mistake not, destined before long to shed some clearer and broader light on psychological medicine and the general phenomena of nervous and mental diseases.
