He was also the author of the brief essay L’Anthanasie de Cabanis, ou la Médecine des incurables, à l’usage des médecins et du clergé (Bordeaux:Balarac), 1857.
Those who enjoyed his closest intimacy were the physiologist Cabanis (Madame de Condorcet's brother-in-law), the poet Alessandro Manzoni, the publicist Benjamin Constant, and François Guizot.
The idea that even if the animal were conscious nothing would be added to the production of behavior, even in animals of the human type, was first voiced by La Mettrie (1745), and then by Cabanis (1802), and was further explicated by Hodgson (1870) and Huxley (1874).
James Henry Cabanis (December 25, 1838 - ?) was an American merchant from Georgetown, Grant County, Wisconsin who spent two years as a Republican member of the Wisconsin State Assembly from Grant County.
