Digital Highlights: The Hahnemannian Monthly

This Friday, check out one of our journals:

This volume of the Hahnemannian Monthly includes, among other things including articles on the therapeutic use of vinegar, a full specimen of the human cerebro-spinal nervous system. The illustration is from the leading article in the February 1889 issue, “A New Preparation of the Nervous System,” by. A.R. Thomas, MD, Philadelphia.

The cadaver used was that of a 35-year old female; Dr. Weaver wanted to prepare the cadaver in the manner he did in order to demonstrate the complexity and structure of the human nervous system.

As always, for more from the Medical Heritage Library, please visit our full collection!
