Extract

The following account is based on the writer's experience of convulsion treatment at centres abroad, on a review of the literature up to the present date, and on three cases recently treated at West Park Hospital, Epsom. It is published at this early stage in order to make a knowledge of the technique and literature of a method which has already proved itself worthy of extensive trial, available to a larger number of workers in this country.
