Abstract
We turned out to be right in our review of the 1st edition of the named manual, predicting a solid future for it in view of its major positive qualities. In a short period of time, its third edition has appeared. In this edition, the textbook won even more with the inclusion of a chapter on the study of cerebrospinal fluid. We should also welcome the increase in the number of figures that significantly contribute to the assimilation of the text. In the chapter on "functional" diseases, the author outlined the history of the question of neuroses in a timely and very detailed manner. Here the author tried to clarify the understanding of the issue and dissociates himself from the supporters of the identification of neuroses with psychogenias, believing that the position of the latter does not in the least clarify the essence of the issue.
