Über diesen Titel

Inhaltsangabe

On The Functions Of The Cerebellum is a book written by Franz Joseph Gall and published in 1838. The book is a detailed exploration of the cerebellum, a part of the brain responsible for motor control, coordination, and balance. Gall was a prominent physician and anatomist who is widely regarded as the founder of phrenology, a pseudoscientific theory that claimed to be able to determine a person's personality and abilities by examining the shape of their skull. In this book, Gall applies his phrenological theories to the study of the cerebellum, arguing that different regions of the cerebellum are responsible for specific physical and mental functions. He also discusses the role of the cerebellum in various diseases and disorders, including epilepsy and paralysis. Despite its outdated scientific theories, On The Functions Of The Cerebellum is considered an important historical document in the study of neuroscience and brain function.Additional Authors Include George Combe And Andrew Combe.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
