4 leaves, 371 pp; 4 figs. Contemporary cloth. Very Good. This copy does NOT have any library markings. First Edition. COPY OF ERNEST SACHS (with his bookplate). This volume is a continuation of Über die Functionen der Grosshirnrinde. Gesammelte Mittheilungen mit Anmerkungen (1890), reprinting 16 additional papers by Munk, published 1891-1908. "Cortical localization . . . was inaugurated in the 1860's and 1870's: by Broca for speech, by Fritsch and Hitzig for motor functions, by Jackson for a general philosophy. Who then supplied the correct evidence for the sizeable rest, the visual, the acoustic, and somatosensory functions of the brain's convexity? There is only one answer: Hermann Munk. The fact is half-remembered, but three-quarters forgotten, in accordance with some of the wayward accounting of tradition. Neglect of this sort is likely to have its roots in personalities and nationalism. It must be sought in the tense controversies that surrounded the work of Munk and the other men concerned with brain research. . . . Occupying a middle but always original position, Munk fought on two, or rather three, fronts. He had no mercy for Ferrier's concepts of a visual center in the angular gyrus, a center for touch in the hippocampus, and a hunger center in the occiptal lobe; he opposed Flechsig, Hitzig, and Ferrier (at loggerheads themselves) on their localization of intelligence in the frontal lobe (to Munk, intelligence was an attribute of the whole association cortex). On the other hand he defended localization against Goltz. . . . Munk's publications of his work spanning three decades consist of the communications he made to the two learned societies mentioned; the most outstanding ones are collected in a couple of rather modest volumes [one of the two is offered here]; they make difficult reading. His merit regarding the brain's role in vision goes far beyond Meynert, Panizza, Luciani and Tamburini for establishing the facts of cortical blindness and mind blindness. In unilateral lesions of the occiptal lobe he uncovered the fact of 'hemiopia' where his precursors had only thought of blindness of one eye. . . . His observations about the type of sensory (and motor) loss due to excisions in the parietal lobe were equally ingenious, precise and fundamental, as were his experiments about temporal lobe functions. Sherrington quoted Munk as his forerunner in assigning an essential role to inhibition in reciprocal innervation. . . . We must include Hermann Munk here as one of the most dedicated and solid builders of our neurological foundations" (Haymaker & Schiller, Founders of Neurology, pp. 247-50).
