Excerpt from The Involuntary Nervous System
I went to Leipsic in 1874 to Ludwig's Laboratory with the intention of working at problems connected with the sympathetic nervous system, and from that time until now my thoughts have been occupied with the meaning of this nervous system and with problems which have arisen from its study, such as the origin of the vertebrate central nervous system and thence the origin of the vertebrates themselves.
