Abstract
THE unravelling of the arrangement and complications of the nervous system has always been of great interest not only to physiologists, but also to mankind in general. The specially human attributes which distinguish our species from the rest of the Mammalia have at least an intimate connection with the superior development of the central nervous system, and we have therefore a peculiar interest in tracing the methods by which this complexity is of advantage to the individual.
