Foundations of Modern Neurology

In this work, Dr. Aird, one of the distinguished neurologists of the past generation, recalls the personal lives and achievements of the legendary neurologists and neuroscientists whose scientific breakthroughs in the last seven decades established neurology as an importand discipline. Because of the cross-fertilisation of ideas in the clinical and basic neurosciences, the decades of the mid-20th century were especially exciting. Dr Aird presents biographical sketches of these vital men of genius and tells how they arrived at some of the most important discoveries ever made in this field.
