The Medical and Surgical Reporter, Vol. 72
January to June, 1895 (Classic Reprint)
Description:... Excerpt from The Medical and Surgical Reporter, Vol. 72: January to June, 1895 Man, God's most sublime marvel of understanding, is liberally endowed with inlets for stimuli to be conducted through the agency of molecular motion and vital force to his superior faculty of thinking. Impulses thus received stir up sensations which awaken our psychical operations. Perhaps a glance at their utility will ex bibit the supreme importance of them. All of our acquaintance with the outside world, all of the accessible on a level with our capacities, all of the known this side of the end of human knowledge, rests upon sensation, physical, emotional (or may be latent, which when called into use goes by the name of reflex perception), for a basis. Its latitude is much broader than is usually supposed. To pass out of its circlet is to enter fairyland, a region of mists and shadows where even genius will grope her way in intellectual darkness striving to know the unknow able.
