FROM THE PREFACE TO THE SEVENTH EDITION
The steady advance of clinical neurology has again necessitated a thorough revision of this book.
Numerous additions and alterations have been made — some chapters partly re-written. A number of new illustrations have been introduced, chiefly in the chapter on ventriculography and encephalography, in accordance with the increasing importance of these diagnostic methods. (At present it needs emphasizing, however, that these methods should be regarded as supplementary methods only.) A short description of angiography has been included. A brief outline of the examination of unconscious patients has also been added. The additional X-ray pictures have all been reproduced from the negative films. As the older X-ray pictures, reproduced from the positives, have been retained, this entails a lack of uniformity, which, however, may be useful to the beginner, who should become familiar both with the positive and negative films. In deciding what to include and what to omit I have been guided by the experience gained in the daily work in my clinic. With three exceptions all the photos reproduced in this book are from cases observed in my clinic, and all the X-ray photos are taken by the X-ray department of the hospital.
