“I sat up one night reading this book as one reads a novel, which
in the popular phrase, “cannot be put down.” I have rarely read so
interesting a volume of any kind. It is scientific, accurate, clear,
cogent, unanswerable, and satisfying to the last degree. I am delighted
with it. The whole Christian world will thank you for it. I am going to
use it unblushingly in a course of sermons later on.”—_Cyrus Townsend
Brady._
“A volume which is not the less destructive for its moderation, and its
fairness. Mr. Powell’s discussion of his subject is sane, temperate,
and judicious, and his book merits the careful attention of all who are
interested either from within or without in the all-important subject
of Christian Science.”—_Springfield Republican._
“A fine piece of work.... I can but feel that in your book you have
a little of the swing of Carlyle and the trust of Newman. I cannot,
for the life of me, see what you have left for anyone else to say on
the subject.”—_Rev. Nathaniel S. Thomas, Church of the Holy Apostles,
Philadelphia._

Insomnia and Nerve Strain
By Henry F. Upson, M.D.
Professor of Diseases of the Nervous System in Western Reserve
University, Attending Neurologist at the Lakeside Hospital, Cleveland,
Ohio
_Crown 8vo. With Skiagraphic Illustrations $1.50 net_
"An interesting theory in explanation of many cases of insomnia and
insanity is brought forth and illustrated by Dr. Henry S. Upson of
Cleveland, in his book on ‘Insomnia and Nerve Strain.’ Dr. Upson
believes that very many cases of mania, melancholia, and dementia are
caused by defective teeth.
“The work is technical, and for the profession rather than the lay
reader. It will doubtless prove of great value as a contribution to the
warfare being waged against the mental scourges that fill our asylums
with young people on the threshold of productive activity.”—_Cleveland
Plain Dealer._
“Dr. Upson is, we believe, the first medical practitioner to write
extensively on this topic and the first to accompany his writing with
skiagraphs relating to his cases. His enthusiasm in this matter may be
the means of arousing a greater interest in it than hitherto has been
manifested by physicians.”—_New York Times._
“The author has presented his conceptions in a most attractive and
entertaining manner and time alone will say whether his deductions will
rest on true scientific ground. The treatment of insomnia if carried
out along the lines suggested will not only benefit a great number of
distressing conditions but will undoubtedly curtail the indiscriminate
use of hypnotics at present prevailing.
