In the second half of the 19th century, Paris became an
international center for neurological studies largely because of
Jean-Martin Charcot and his Salpetriere School. Charcot was named
Professor of Diseases of the Nervous System at the University of
Paris in 1882, and thus helped institutionalize neurology as a
medical specialty. By then he had already published widely and had
assembled a team of research specialists and students who
approached the study of the nervous system through the celebrated
methode anatomo-clinique that correlated specific neurological
signs with discrete lesions in the central nervous system. Pushing
beyond the bounds of anatomical study, Charcot went on to study
hysteria, attracting both scientific and social notoriety.
This book provides the best account of the life and contributions
of Jean-Martin Charcot. It gives a fascinating picture of the man
and his milieu, and clearly defines his role in establishing the
new medical specialty of clinical neurology.
