Med. Rec., 69. - New York, William Wood & Company, 1906, kl.8°, 10 pp., orig. wrappers. Rare Offprint! "While the ordinary types of cerebral apoplexy are familiar to every practitioner and present no difficulty of diagnosis, the existence of cerebellar apoplexy is not generally recognized. It is undoubtedly a somewhat rare affec…tion. In 187 consecutive cases oi apoplexy examined post-mortem at the Presbyterian Hospital, hemorrhage in or softening of the cerebellum was found ip four cases only. Yet an examination of the literature of the past twenty years has shown that in every country cases have been observed and recorded in sufficient numbers to warrant the assertion that it is a condition which should be recognized and properly treated. The list of references appended to this paper gives 27 cases in which cerebellar hemorrhage has been found after death. There is no question, therefore, of the existence of the affection. The following cases appear to present the symptoms which are characteristic of this form of apoplexy." M. Allen Starr Moses Allen Starr (1854-1932) 'Professor of Neurology in the College pf Physician and Surgeons at Columbia University, New York City' "had plans for a career in classical culture when he graduated from Princeton and embarked for Germany to study Greek and Roman history. In Berlin, however, several visits to Helmholtz's laboratory revived a latent interest in natural science. He returned to his native New York, graduated from the College of Physicians and Surgeons (P&S), Columbia University, did a residency at Bellevue Hospital, then returned to Europe to work at Heidelberg, Vienna, and Paris. On return to New York he set up a laboratory in his home and in 1884 published an essay on the sensory tracts of the central nervous system, elucidating some of the then-current questions of myelination. Starr's regard as an American pioneer in the field of cerebral localization stemmed from his participation in a symposium on that subject with the famous English neurologist David Ferrier and neurosurgeon Victor Horsley, who were delegates to the 1888 Congress of American Physicians and Surgeons in Washington, D.C. He became professor of nervous diseases at the Montreal Neurological Institute. During neurosurgical operations they electrically stimulated the surface of the exposed unanesthetized brains of patients who were talking. On-going speech was blocked by excitation of the parietal-temporal area, the inferior frontal area, and the supplemental motor area of the left hemisphere (Penfield & Roberts, 1959). Those experimental protocols were a continuation of Penfield's long quest to add to the knowledge of body representations on the neocortex." H.W. Magoun & L. Marshall; American Neuroscience in the Twentieth Century (2005), pp.383-384.

Am. J. Med. Sc., 109. - Philadelphia, June 1895, 8°, 25 pp., 7 Fig., orig. wrappers. Rare Offprint! "Horsley's paper had a tremendous impact on the medical community. He passionately recommended operating on patients with spinal tumors, as the alternative - conservative treatment - was associatedwith a very high mortality: 74%of… patients with unoperated extradural tumors and 83% of patients with unoperated intradural tumors died due to respiratory failure, pneumonia, urinary septicemia, or decubitus ulcera, to mention the commonest causes of death. Horsley was convinced that surgery could prevent grave complications and death for a significant number of patients even given the prevailing enormous diagnostic and technical restraints. His paper was so stimulating that Starr could report on 19 spinal tumor operations as early as 1895, adding three cases of his own. Eleven of these, however, died from postoperative complications.With increasing experience, however, mortality figures could be reduced."

Am. J. Med. Sc., 87. - Philadelphia, January 1887, 8°, 19 pp., 5 Fig., orig. wrappers. Rare Offprint! Robert Starr: "Recent research in cerebral physiology has been directed toward the subject of the localization of sensory areas on the cortex of the brain, and has been productive of many very interesting discoveries. The invest…igations of Wernicke and Stilling in the anatomy of the brain, and the observations of numerous pathologists in cases of hemianopsia have confirmed in such a striking manner the conclusions of the physiologist, Munk, regarding the cortical area governing vision, that a summary of the facts deserves attention. A knowledge of these facts is necessary both for the exact examination of cases and for an accurate record of autopsies ; as it seems probable that many errors in the past have been due to the imperfect investigation of symptoms and of lesions. The experiments of Munk, first announced in 1878,1 awakened so much criticism that he deemed it necessary to repeat them, especially as they differed in their results from those of Ferrier.2 In 1881 a second series of researches was reported by him confirming his first conclusions,3 while in the same year Ferrier was led by further experiments to modify his earlier statements,4 and to bring them more nearly into accord with those of the German physiologist. At the recent July meeting of the Physiological Society of Berlin (1883) Munk made a final statement summing up the result of the work of the past seven years,5 and demonstrating the accuracy of his conclusions. These may be stated as follows:- 1 Verhandl. d. Physiol. Gesellsch. zu Berlin, 1878-79, Nos. 4-5. 2 Ferrier, Functions of the Brain, 1876, pp. 164-171. 3 Verrichtungen des Gehirns, Berlin, 1881. 4 Cerebral Amblyopia and Hemiopia, Brain, Jan. 1881. 5 See Report in Nature, Aug. 30, 1883.

Am. J. M. Sc., 88. - Philadelphia, The American Journal of the Medical Sciences, July 1884, 8°, 51, (1) pp., 2 Figs., orig. wrappers. Rare Offprint! "The localization of brain functions has been raised from the level of an hypothesis to that of a definitely ascertained fact within the past ten years. Meynert was the first to dis…card the doctrine of Flourens, that the brain acted as a whole, and on anatomical grounds declared that different portions possessed different powers. The study of aphasia led French observers independently to the same result. Fritsch and Hitzig in Germany, and Ferrier in England, arrived at a similar conclusion soon after by means of their well-known physiological experiments upon animals, and the results reached by them have been confirmed in a most striking manner by Munk, Dalton, and others. But while anatomical study, demonstrating a connection between various organs of the body and definite regions of the surface of the brain, may furnish grounds for a priori reasoning as to the function of those regions; and while physiological experiments upon animals may afford valuable suggestions as to the probable effect of limited brain disease in man, an accurate determination of the question of localization can only be reached by a study of clinical cases. The appreciation of this fact has led Charcot, Ferrier, Nothnagel, Exner, Wernicke, and others to collect the cases on record in which a limited area of disease, whose position was determined by a careful autopsy, had given rise to definite symptoms. From the comparison and classification of these eases, certain general conclusions have been reached, and it is now possible to refer many symptoms occurring in the course of brain disease to a destruction of a definite area of the surface."
