Additional Details

first edition in book form. "In the Lectures, Brodie adopted the original approach of discussing types of symptoms rather than particular diseases, distinguishing the manifestations of organic afflictions from those of hysterical origin, and giving the first systematic account of the diagnosis and treatment of pain and paralysis in the absence of local organic disease"--Norman 346.
