  [Wir] lassen die bisherigen Erklärungen sogenannter rein dynamischer Erkrankungen so lange geltend stehen, bis die neuere Neuro-Physiologie die auf materiellem Wege nicht zu erfassenden dynamischen Erscheinungen ins hellere Licht wird gesetzt haben

  1842

  After an exordium, in which the author refers to the rapid progress which neuro-physiology is making in comparison with its “sister” science, neuro-pathology, he proceeds to lay down, first, the laws of nervous irradiation, or the transmission, by the medium of the cerebrospinal axis, of any irritation of one nerve to another homologous nerve—as of a motor to a motor nerve: and, then, the laws of nervous reflex, or the transmission by the same circuit, namely, the cerebrospinal axis, of any such irritation of a nerve to other but heterologous nerves—as from a motor to sensitive or trophical nerves.

  1843

  the author occupies himself with attempts at illustrating the distinctions between the nervous and sensorial powers; the various species of nervous influence, &c. […] This part of the work consists of a mysteriously and laboriously worded statement of facts and doctrines in neuro-physiology

  Another law, regulating neurophysiology, the law of isolated conduction, was equally useful in this case, in pointing to the diagnosis of the seat of the injury.

  the truths inductively reached will, when possible, be elucidated deductively, by affiliating them on the truths of Neuro-physiology and Aestho-physiology
