| Summary: | "In this book an attempt is made to bring together some of the more prominent phenomena of the brain and of the mind, both in their normal and morbid aspects. To the metaphysical and philosophical bearings of the various assumptions involved in such an attempt, little or no prominence is given. In an elementary work of this description it is obvious, that an exhaustive account of the anatomy, physiology, and pathology of the brain would defeat its own object. The author has, therefore, merely sought to bring into apposition some of the more important cerebral and mental facts and no pretense has been made to furnish the student with an elaborate treatise upon any department of the subject matter"--Preface.
