Beevor and Horsley's paper on electric stimulation of the monkey's
brain is the most beautiful work yet done for precision. See Phil.
Trans., vol. 179, p. 205, especially the plates.

[63] The frontal lobes as yet remain a puzzle. Wundt tries to explain
them as an organ of 'apperception' (Grundzüge d. Physiologischen
Psychologie, 3d ed., vol. i, p. 233 ff.), but I confess myself unable
to apprehend clearly the Wundtian philosophy so far as this word
enters into it, so must be contented with this bare reference.--Until
quite recently it was common to talk of an 'ideational centre' as of
something distinct from the aggregate of other centres. Fortunately
this custom is already on the wane.

[66] I ought to add, however, that François-Franck (Fonctions Motrices,
p. 370) got, in two dogs and a cat, a different result from this sort
of 'circumvallation.'
[67] For this word, see T. K. Clifford's Lectures and Essays (1879),
vol. ii, p. 72.

ff., 197 ff., and 241 ff. In G. H. Lewes's Physical Basis of Mind,
Problem IV: 'The Reflex Theory,' a very full history of the question is
given.

[77] Goltz first applied the inhibition theory to the brain in his
'Verrichtungen des Grosshirns,' p. 39 ff. On the general philosophy
of Inhibition the reader may consult Brunton's 'Pharmakology and
Therapeutics,' p. 154 ff., and also 'Nature,' vol. 27, p. 419 ff.
