Lectures on Electricity and Galvanism, in Their Physiological and Therapeutical Relations is a book written by the British physician and physiologist Golding Bird, first published in 1849. The book is a collection of lectures delivered by Bird at Guy's Hospital in London, where he was a physician and lecturer in physiology. The book covers the principles of electricity and galvanism, and their application in the field of medicine. Bird explains the basic concepts of electricity, such as electric current, resistance, and conductivity, and how these principles apply to the human body. He also discusses the use of galvanism in medical treatments, such as the treatment of paralysis, neuralgia, and other nervous disorders. The lectures are organized into six sections, each covering a different aspect of electricity and galvanism in relation to physiology and therapeutics. The first section introduces the basic principles of electricity, while the second section focuses on the physiological effects of electricity on the human body. The third section discusses the use of electricity in the treatment of various medical conditions, such as rheumatism, gout, and epilepsy. The fourth section is dedicated to the use of galvanism in the treatment of paralysis and other nervous disorders. The fifth section covers the use of electricity in the diagnosis of medical conditions, such as the detection of foreign bodies in the eye. Finally, the sixth section discusses the use of electricity in surgery, including the use of the electric cautery and the galvanic battery. Overall, Lectures on Electricity and Galvanism, in Their Physiological and Therapeutical Relations is a comprehensive guide to the principles and applications of electricity and galvanism in medicine. It is an important historical document in the field of electrotherapy and provides valuable insights into the development of medical technology in the 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
