Abstract

PROF. C. S. SHERRINGTON, who was elected president of the Royal Society at the anniversary meeting on November 30, is well known as the leading authority on the physiology of the central nervous system. The guiding principles of his researches are to be found in his book on “The Integrative Action of the Nervous System,” based on the text of the Silliman lectures which he delivered in Yale University in 1906. This book gathers up the arguments of the most important of his papers on the physiology of the nervous system, and it is safe to say that no other book in any language has had such an immediate and profound effect on our conceptions of neurology.
