""An Essay On The Nature, Causes And Treatment Of Water In The Brain"" is a medical book written by William Shearman in 1825. The book delves into the topic of hydrocephalus, a condition where there is an abnormal accumulation of cerebrospinal fluid in the brain, leading to an increase in intracranial pressure. Shearman discusses the nature and causes of this condition, as well as various treatment options available at the time, including surgical procedures. The book is an important contribution to the field of neurology and provides insights into the understanding and management of hydrocephalus in the early 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
