Fragments Of Neurological HistoryWorld Scientific, 24. apr. 2003 - 652 sider This highly interesting collection of historical articles started as a series of “space-fillers”, the journalist's device to mitigate the harshness of white space at the end of scientific papers.The author has expanded these short essays and included several additional articles and biographical reviews.

The reader attracted to medical and neurological history should find much of interest in these diverse topics. |
