"Neuralgia and the Diseases that Resemble It" by Francis Edmund Anstie is a 19th-century scientific book for doctors that explores neuralgia, a type of nerve pain. The author seeks to explain what causes this pain and how it differs from other diseases with similar symptoms. The book starts with the author explaining the importance of understanding neuralgia properly and why it should be seen as its own disease. The text is divided into two parts: the first section examines neuralgia, and the second section discusses illnesses that are like neuralgia. The beginning of the book highlights the need to understand pain itself to better understand the physiological reasons behind neuralgic conditions.
