An excellent copy. 1897 Hard Cover. 188 pp. Grey boards with gilt titles. The effects of alcohol and other narcotics are treated with special fulness. The subject is given a fair and judicial discussion, and those conclusions are presented which are universally accepted by the medical profession. But while this most important form of intemperance is singled out, it should be remembered that the breaking of any of nature's laws is also a form of intemperance, and that the whole study of applied physiology is to encourage a more healthy and a more noble and self-denying mode of life.

How do what philosophers call "qualia", the redness of red and the painfulness of pain, arise from the concerted actions of nerve cells and their associated synaptic and molecular processes? Can such feelings be explained by modern science, or is some quite different kind of explanation needed? And how can this seemingly intractable problem be approached experimentally? Written as an introduction to the field and drawing upon clinical, psychological and physiological observations, this book seeks answers to these questions within a neuroscientific framework, that is, how do the operations of the conscious mind emerge out of the specific interactions of myriads of neurons?(Publisher)., Roberts and Company Publishers, 2004, 2.75<
