Notes

  1. 1.

    Starr (1884, 366).

  2. 2.

    I use “neurology” or “neurosciences” here in its broad, non-historical sense. Both terms cover the diverse group of medical disciplines, such as pathology, histology, physiology, psychiatry, internal medicine, etc. dealing with the structure and functions of the human brain, long before these terms were actually introduced.

  3. 3.

    For a concise but comprehensive overview of the localisation doctrine, see Finger (1994), “the era of cortical localization”, 32–62. More exhaustive are Young (1970), Clarke and Jacyna (1987, 212–307), Soury (1899), and his lemma “cerveau”, in Charles Richet, Dictionnaire de physiologie (Paris: Alcan, 1897), tome II, 547–670; von Monakow (1902, 1904) which contains a bibliography of more than 1000 references. Useful is Brazier (1988). For a critical review of the historical literature, see Clarke and Dewhurst (1996, 177–184).
