''A Dissertation On The Influence Of The Passions Upon Disorders Of The Body'' is a book written by William Falconer in 1788. The book explores the relationship between emotions and physical health, examining how the passions can affect the body’s functions and lead to various disorders.

He argues that emotional states such as anger, fear, and grief can have a profound impact on the body, causing illnesses ranging from headaches and stomach pains to more serious conditions such as paralysis and epilepsy. Falconer also explores the ways in which different temperaments and personalities can be more susceptible to certain types of disorders. Overall, ''A Dissertation On The Influence Of The Passions Upon Disorders Of The Body'' offers a fascinating insight into the intersection of mind and body in the 18th century, and remains a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of medicine and psychology.Being The Essay To Which The Fothergillian Medal Was Adjudged.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
