Book excerpt: Excerpt from On Cerebria and Other Diseases of the Brain The causes for this portentous phenomenon are not myata rions, nor far to seek; nor, when found, are they difficult to understand. The great development of railway and telegraphic communication has resulted in an enormous increase of business transactions, entailing a vast augmentation of the cares, worries, and anxieties of life. The brain, receptive of all impressions, and originating all volitional impulses, has a double load to bear in the economy. The struggle for life is ever increasingly severe; every throe of this struggle implies disintegration and waste of brain tissue and whilst the chances of irregularity or disorder in the nutritive changes increase in a geometrical ratio, the increase of disease is a logical sequence.
