| Summary: | "This monograph is devoted to an analysis and interpretation of the basic concepts used in neurology. The history of these principles is traced from their first and original conception to their present use. For the first time in the history of neurology, I believe, a systematic effort is made to submit these principles to the test of reasoning and logic. The author tries to integrate them into a general view of organized nature. He adopts the principle of evolution of nervous function which, however, he does not conceive as an unbroken progress from imperfect to more perfect types, but rather as a functional metamorphosis to which a basic coordinating mechanism, existing from the very beginning, is submitted"--Book.
