Böcker i History of Neuroscience-serien

An English translation of the text written nearly a century ago. The two volumes contain over 1000 original illustrations and provide useful information about the anatomical organization of the nervous system structure-function correlates, and the history of neuroscience.

Based on the study of men who were wounded in the head during World War I, this study, written shortly after the War by a leading German neurologist, is still frequently cited. It has been translated for the first time into English.

This is the first English-language publication of the complete works of the Spanish neurohistologist, Santiago Ramon y Cajal (1852-1934). The book includes all his writings on the cerebral cortex.

Describing Cajal's fundamental contributions to neuroscience, which continue to be important today, this text details Cajal's ideas and data, and provides readers with the opportunity to learn what Cajal thought about his research career and the significance of his observations.
