Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book investigates the nature of the nervous system and its role in our physical and mental functions. Arising from the shift in scientific focus from the mind to the physical body, this book follows the developments in the field of neurology throughout history. The author argues that many aspects previously attributed to the physical nervous system itself are in fact controlled by the mind. With a focus on the works of Sir Charles Bell, the author challenges the accepted belief of vital properties of nerves. Tackling the established idea of motor and sensitive influences between the brain and muscles, the author instead argues for a direct and intuitive mental control over the body.
