Excerpt from A Report on the Circulation of the Lobar Ganglia

It would be difficult to find greater encouragement for this work.

It is the clinical anatomy connected with old age which is the incentive of our study.

The apt-to-be-neglected care of the old is the proper study and specialty, so to speak, of the practitioner. One feels that it is imperative to understand numbness, fatigue, tremors, all degrees of unconsciousness, and all forms of cerebral softening, if one adds cerebral arterio sclerosis to the study of old-age conditions, understanding that in many cases old age is renal, cardiac, cerebral, arteriosclerosis.

We must build up on the detailed study of the cerebral anatomy, as Duret has said, in order to understand old age, using this knowledge as the foundation before studying the physiology of the circulation, or of the pathology or of the walls of the vessels.
