Excerpt from An Elementary Study of the Brain
To simplify the nomenclature, without sacrifice of accuracy, has been hardly possible; the names employed are, therefore, those from both the older terminology and the Basel association nomenclature (bn A), which in the author's opinion will be easiest acquired and remembered by the student. In most cases the terms descriptive of the brain of the sheep have been borrowed from the human, rather than from any mammalian, nomenclature, inasmuch as an understanding of the former, from which the latter is but an outgrowth, is the objective of this book. While in general the only names given in English are those commonly used in that form, the etymology of all those which appear in technical form is to be found in the foot notes moreover, as far as is possible, the complete bna system has been presented, either as the name given or bracketed there after, that there may be a basis for further study and comparison with texts employing exclusively the newer terminology.
The author lays little claim to originality for the subject matter of the text, and has avoided a necessarily free scattering of references by grouping his sources as a bibliography, to which it is hoped the student will constantly refer for more detailed and conclusive information. If, indeed, this brain primer may but lay the foundation for further research in the vast field of nervous science, it will have fully attained its object.
