Cerebral Localisation. Illustrated by a Case of Brain-Injury

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  19 February 2018

Extract

In the human subject, strictly limited traumatic brain-lesions are among the pathological conditions which bear most clearly upon the problems of cerebral localisation. Necessarily these accidental experiments upon the human brain are sometimes as sharply localised as are the experiments of the physiologist upon the brains of lower animals. For the purposes of the physician, indeed, they are more instructive than the latter.
