Abstract
After the histological information presented in Chapters I and II and the additional details in Chapters III, IV, VI, VII and IX, it will be necessary to give only a brief summary mainly of the geometry of the connexions established over the various chains. While doing so, it is desirable to start with the neurone chains activated by the mossy fiber input because these have such complex and also such extended relations to the neuronal network of the cerebellar cortex.
