Excerpt from The Pulse-Sensations: A Study in Tactile Sphygmology The contrast between the mechanical accuracy and elaborate detail of the sphygmogram, and the vague and inconclusive character of the pulse impressions hitherto gained by palpation, is sufficient to explain, though it hardly justifies, the relative neglect of a valuable clinical method. Instead of being made to share in the general advance, palpation of the pulse has been almost ignored in modern investigations. Indeed, this obvious disproportion in the amount of attention bestowed on the instrumental to the exclusion of the digital method, was the sign which told of something left undone, and which pointed to the tactile pulse phenomena as to a mine to be explored.
