    INTRODUCTION. In the following pages I have prefaced what I have to say upon epilepsy and the cognate disorders by an expo¬ sition of the views which I hold upon the physiology of muscular contraction. I have done this because the ex¬ perience of the last few years has convinced me that the pathology may be misapprehended for want of the phy¬ siology, and the physiology for want of the pathology, and because I know of no shorter or better way by which I can hope to demonstrate the changes in theory and practice which appear to be necessary in the subject under consideration. ■i, Heneietta Stiieet, Cavendish Square.
