Sinopsis
Excerpt from On Chronic Alcoholic Intoxication: With an Inquiry Into the Influence of the Abuse of Alcohol as a Predisposing Cause of Disease
I was engaged in the preparation of the first edition of this treatise for the press, when the valuable publication on 4 alcoholism, by Magnus Huss, of Stockholm, came eundeii my notice. In this work, the author has fully and accu rately described the disease now under consideration. It may be observed, however, that his attention has been more particularly directed to the symptoms and pathology of the disorder, while in the present volume comparatively great stress has been laid on the predisposing and immedi ate gcauses of the illness, and especially on its mode of treatment. In order to be assured of the correctness of my statements, I have confined myself almost exclusively to the results of my own experience, avoiding as much as possible filling up omissions by borrow mg from the writings of others. The following, therefore, 18 a mere sketch of a vast and important subject; but, however incomplete it may be, it will, I trust, be found not altogether devoid of interest and usefulness.

Excerpt from On Chronic Alcoholic Intoxication: With an Inquiry Into the Influence of the Abuse of Alcohol as a Predisposing Cause of Disease
The therapeutical properties of zinc having become during the last few years a subject of much medical interest, I was induced to commence in 1855 a series of comparative inquiries respecting the action of oxide of zinc in epilepsy, chorea, mild hysteria, paralysis and lead palsy, cases of exhaustion from excessive mental exertions, and in another peculiar chronic disorder of the nervous system which is the subject of the present treatise. It soon became obvious that in certain of the above diseases the treatment adopted effected a complete recovery, or was attended by a very marked improvement that in others it was followed by no material benefit; and even in a few instances of hysteria was open to objection.
