Abstract

OF late years the topographical anatomy of the surface of the brain has deservedly attracted considerable attention; and the recent able investigations of Hughlings Jackson and Ferrier have shown the importance, in fact the absolute necessity of a correct and generally recognised description and enumeration of the cerebral convolutions. Mr. Galton therefore deserves the thanks of all interested in the subject, for having introduced to us in English dress this valuable monograph by Prof. Ecker of Freiburg. On the Convolutions of the Human Brain. By Dr. Alexander Ecker, Professor of Anatomy and Comparative Anatomy in the University of Freiburg, Baden. Translated, by permission of the author, by John C. Galton, M.A., Oxon., M.R.C.S., F.L.S., &c., &c. Translator of Prof. Roser's “Manual of Surgical Anatomy,” &c. (London: Smith, Elder, & Co., 1873.)
