About the Book Medical diagnosis is the method applied to determine which disease or condition explains a person's symptoms and signs of illness. A diagnosis requires information that is often collected from the history and physical examination of the person seeking medical aid. Undertaking diagnosis is often a challenging task, because many of the signs and symptoms observed are nonspecific.About us Leopold Classic Library has the goal of making available to readers the classic books that have been out of print for decades.

Excerpt from The Anatomy of the Brain: A Manual for Students and Practitioners of MedicineImmediately after the publication of the first edition of this laboratory introduction to the study of neurological anatomy, the author began the preparation of a serial sec tion of the brain-stem of the sheep, stained by the Pal Weigart method. This piece of research was due to the desire on the part of the writer to substantiate his convie tions, that the relationships of the components of the brain stem of the sheep would prove as useful in teaching the architecture of the corresponding region of the human brain, as the grosser parts have been. That this is true can be convincingly affirmed, by comparing plates XXXII to XXXVIII, inclusive, of the present edition, with illustra tions of the analogous regions of the human brain, that may be found in auv authoritative work on descriptive human anatomy.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
