Annotation

Brigadier General William Alexander Hammond, M.D. (1828-1900) was an American neurologist and the 11th Surgeon General of the U. S. Army (1862-1864). In addition to his pioneering work in neurology and his military service, especially during the Civil War, he founded the Army Medical Museum, co-founded the American Neurological Association, and gave his name to Hammond's disease, a type of athetosis which he was the first to describe in 1871. In 1857, he won an American Medical Association Prize for his essay Experimental Research Relative to the Nutritive Value and Physiological Effects of Albumen Starch and Gum, when Singly and Exclusively Used as a Food, which Hammond had researched and compiled over the course of several years with the army. In 1874, Hammond founded the American Neurological Association (ANA) along with six others. Besides the ANA's journal Annals of Neurology, Hammond was responsible for the creation or editorship of several other medical journals. Amongst his works are: Robert Severne: His Friends and His Enemies (1867), Sleep and its Derangements (1869) and Physics and Physiology of Spiritualism (1871).
