About this book

A book by William A. Hammond carries the subtitle Their Physiology and Pathology. The text says Saint Joseph of Copertino remained for five years without eating bread, and ten years without drinking wine, contenting himself with dried fruits, which he mixed with various bitter herbs. The text says Nicolas of Flue, as soon as he embraced the monastic life, subsisted altogether on the holy eucharist.

The text says an explanation of a miracle is about on a par, as regards lucidity and logic, with the explanations given of the alleged case of prolonged fasting in Brooklyn. The text says Palma declared she felt an intense heat, which the doctor refers to as the divine fire, but that with a thermometer the doctor failed to find any abnormal increase. The text says other hysterical women have deceived in the same or in still more astonishing ways.
