Description:
-
This book was created by Thomas Willis, an English physician who was a founding member of the Royal Society as well as a pioneer in research into the anatomy of the brain. His work marks the transition between medieval and modern notions of brain function. His anatomical illustrations detail the brain and the cranial, spinal, and autonomic nerves. This tercentenary edition comes in two volumes: the first containing biography notes and an introduction, and the second containing the facsimile.
