Excerpt from The Cerebral Convolutions of Man, Represented According to Original Observations, Especially Upon Their Development in the Fetus: Intended for the Use of Physicians

We have undoubtedly been too much discouraged from following this path by the ill success of the first serious attempt at a localization of the mental pro-1 cesses.

Bringing certain bunch es or bumps of the cranium into connection with cer tain mental dispositions, for which purpose he had already in his youth collected materials, he now, with his scholar Spurzheim, made a system of Phrenology in which but little was said about the brain, and which, in this form of a scientific structure, was thor oughly defective.
