Hughlings] Jackson's clinical cases. Thus Ferrier was among the first to apply his experimental principles to observations in man. He was indeed the link between Jackson and the modern work on the cerebral cortex of Sherrington and others" (Garrison's History of Neurology). "A later and detailed review of his results, and of those who followed him, appeared in his Croonian Lectures of June 1890 (The Croonian Lectures on Cerebral Localisation, London, 1890) [offered here]" (Clarke & O'Malley, Human Brain and Spinal Cord, p. 514).
