This volume is divided into five main sections: the logic of the lesion experiment and its role in the neural sciences; lesion experiments with laboratory species and the applicability of their results to man; proximal and distal anatomical effects of brain damage, and the difficulties inherent in correlating anatomical data with performance; factors which influence recovery after brain damage; and theories of recovery, including a reexamination of the doctrine of localization in light of recent findings.
