The vegetative nervous system: New approaches in the treatment of symptoms relating to vital functions
The line between autonomic and somatic is blurrier than the textbooks suggest, and the enteric nervous system answers to the brain least of all. This paper covers the parasympathetic and enteric systems and what they govern, treats the vegetative nervous system as the seat of psychosomatic response, and closes on the author’s own recovery after twelve bowel operations.
