The Central Nervous System

Abstract

PROF. LOUIS BOLK has risen far above the opportunity that the title of this work would seem to offer, and has written a book of quite uncommon interest. To this success several factors have contributed. In the first place, his own labours, and those of Profs. Charnock Bradley and Elliot Smith, to whom he makes due acknowledgment, have brought much new light and interest to the subject. Symptomatic of this triad advance is a new nomenclature of a somewhat unfortunately triune character, varying from simple numerals to idyllic descriptive terms.

Das Cerebellum der Säugetiere. Eine vergleichend anatomische Untersuchung.

By Prof. Louis Bolk. Pp. 337; illustrated. (Jena: Gustav Fischer, 1906.) Price 15 marks.
