Mrs Humphrey Ward [ Mary Augusta Ward, nee Arnold ] (1851-1920), English novelist [ Harold Frederick (1856-98), London correspon
Mrs. Humphrey Ward novelist. Autograph Letter Signed 'Mary A. Ward' to W. J. Fisher regarding 'the fund to be raised for Mr. Harold Frederic's widow & children' expressing disquiet over 'circumstances disclosed' at .Frederic's inquest.
25 Grosvenor Place London SW on cancelled letterhead of Stocks Tring. 5 December 1898. An interesting letter regarding a celebrated Victorian scandal. In 1884 Frederic had come to England with his wife and five children as the London correspondent of the New York TImes. He set up a second household with Kate Lyon with whom he had a further three children. Lyons was a Christian Scientist and when Frederic suffered a stroke in 1898 she tried to cure him by faith healing but he died. At the instigation of Mrs Frederic Lyon was tried for manslaughter but was acquitted. 3pp. 12mo. Bifolium with mourning border. In good condition lightly-aged with minor traces of two tissue mounts. She begins by stating that his letter has remained unanswered due to 'health which is not very strong and an unusual pressure of letters'. She is 'somewhat puzzled what to say' but while contributing five guineas does not wish to be put on the committee of the fund 'for poor Mrs. Frederic & her children'. She concludes: 'I much admired some sides of Mr. Frederic's talent but circumstances disclosed at the inquest were very painful and my mind is so far from clear on the whole subject that I should prefer not to be on the Committee'. A postscript regarding the making out of the cheque for five guineas is in another hand. Loosely inserted is a slip of paper with a manuscript note by Fisher regarding the author of the letter. From a batch of papers received by Fisher in connection with the fund. 25 Grosvenor Place, London SW, on cancelled letterhead of Stocks, Tring. 5 December 1898. unknown

Elements of Physiology.
Lea and Blanchard. Collectible - Acceptable. Collectible - Acceptable. Former Library book. Arranged from the Second London Edition by John Bell 1796-1872. Translation by William Baly 1814-1861 of Handbuch der Physiologie des Menschen fur Vorlesungen. Philadelphia: Lea & Blanchard 1843. 1st American Edition. First published English London 1837-1842 in parts. xix113-886pp. 32 page rear catalog. Thick octavo. Contemporary calf with black leather spine label. Rear board detached binding scraped and rubbed sheets moderately browned and foxed a good for this book slightly better than average copy with library rubber stamp to the title-page front paste-down and several other leaves. Scarce. The American edition was issued without the text woodcuts and lithographed plates in the English edition. The first textbook of physiology first published in German in four parts from 1833 to 1840 and a key book in the emergence of the still-dominant monist-materialist model in medicine and psychology. A vastly influential text. Muller's doctrine of specific nerve energies of great importance in the history of psychology first became widely known through his Handbuch. Zusne Biographical Dictionary of Psychology pp. 308-9; Norman Catalog 1568 original German edition; DSB: 567-74; Wozniak Mind and Body #38 & pp. 38-39. Weight: 2 pounds 12.0 ounces = 1.3 kg. Size: 9.5 x 6.2 x 2.4 inches = 23.8 x 15.5 x 6cm. "Muller's work began a new era in the study of physiology: he pioneered the use of experimental methods in medicine introduced the element of psychology into physiological investigation . and made the first attempts to explain physiological problems in terms of existing comparative physical and chemical knowledge" Norman Catalog. "Fundamentally the doctrine of specific nerve energies involved two cardinal principles. The first of these principles was that the mind is directly aware not of objects in the physical world but of states of the nervous system. The nervous system in other words serves as an intermediary between the world and the mind and thus imposes its own nature on mental processes. The second was that the qualities of the sensory nerves of which the mind receives knowledge in sensation are specific to the various senses the nerve of vision being normally as insensible to sound as the nerve of audition is to light" Wozniak p. 39.
