THE PRACTICAL
HOME PHYSICIAN AND ENCYCLOPEDIA OF MEDICINE
The biggy of the late 1800's. Clearly shows the massive inroads in medical science and the treatment of disease.

ALCOHOL AND THE HUMAN BODY In fact alcohol was known to be a poison, and considered quite dangerous. Something modern medicine now agrees with. This was known circa 1907. A very impressive scientific book on the subject.

DISEASES OF THE SKIN is a massive book on skin diseases from 1914. Don't be feint hearted though, it's loaded with photos that I found disturbing.

For this new (8th) edition this standard work has undergone a thorough re­

Brills Psychanalysis

THE PRACTICAL APPLICATION OF ALL FREUD’S THEORIES

Psychanalysis: Its Theories and Practical Application. By A. A.
Brill, Ph. B., M. D., Clinical Assistant in Neurology at Columbia
University Medical School. Octavo of 392 pages. Cloth, $3.00 net.

NEW (2d) EDITION

To the general practitioner, who first sees these “borderline” cases (the
neu
roses and the psychoses), as well as to those specially interested in neurologic
work, Dr. Brll's work will prove most valuable. Dr. Brill has had wide clinical
experience, both in America and in Europe. The results of this experience you
get in this book. Here you get the practical application of all Freud’s theories
and fr
om the pen of a man thoroughly competent to write.

Unlike other forms of psychotherapy, psychanalysis deals with the neuroses
as entities. It does not treat them as symptoms, as do hypnotism, suggestion,
and persuasion. Such treatment is similar to treating the cough or fever regard­
less of the causal disease. Psychanalysis concerns itself with the individual as a
personality. It gives you a real insight into the neuroses and the psychoses.

word quickly. The tables of arteries, muscles, nerves, veins, etc, are of the
greatest help in assembling anatomic facts. Every word is given its definition—a
