Item description from seller

New York: William Wood & Company, 1893, 8°, XII, 295 pp., 55 Figs., orig. cloth; rebacked; with stamp of "Worchester State Hospital Medical Library". First Edition! Embossed stamp on title, a stamp on the head of the first page, ex-libris of the Worchester Hospital and Arthur Edwards Lyons on the front endpaper. Moses Allen Starr's "Brain surgery" was the first American book on neurosurgery, published the same year as Macewen's pioneering neurosurgical classic. Moses Allen Starr (1854-1932) 'Professor of Neurology in the College pf Physician and Surgeons at Columbia University, New York City' "had plans for a career in classical culture when he graduated from Princeton and embarked for Germany to study Greek and Roman history. In Berlin, however, several visits to Helmholtz's laboratory revived a latent interest in natural science. He returned to his native New York, graduated from the College of Physicians and Surgeons (P&S), Columbia University, did a residency at Bellevue Hospital, then returned to Europe to work at Heidelberg, Vienna, and Paris. On return to New York he set up a laboratory in his home and in 1884 published an essay on the sensory tracts of the central nervous system, elucidating some of the then-current questions of myelination. Starr's regard as an American pioneer in the field of cerebral localization stemmed from his participation in a symposium on that subject with the famous English neurologist David Ferrier and neurosurgeon Victor Horsley, who were delegates to the 1888 Congress of American Physicians and Surgeons in Washington, D.C. He became professor of nervous diseases at the Montreal Neurological Institute. During neurosurgical operations they electrically stimulated the surface of the exposed unanesthetized brains of patients who were talking. On-going speech was blocked by excitation of the parietal-temporal area, the inferior frontal area, and the supplemental motor area of the left hemisphere (Penfield & Roberts, 1959). Those experimental protocols were a continuation of Penfield's long quest to add to the knowledge of body representations on the neocortex." H.W. Magoun & L. Marshall; American Neuroscience in the Twentieth Century (2005), pp.383-384 Garrison & Morton No.9637.
