Footnotes
Thomas Willis's last work, Pharmaceutice rationalis concerns the anatomy and physiology of the thoraic and abdominal organs, and includes the first clinical and pathological account of emphysema, and description of whooping-cough. The octavo edition of De anima brutorum, published almost simultaneously with the first quarto edition, and including the same plates (depicting human and sheep brains, and the anatomy of a lobster, oyster and an earthworm), is considered a classic of neurological anatomy and medical psychology. The chapter 'De stupiditate sive morosi' includes the first description of schizophrenia. See illustration on preceding page.
