THE BRAIN; AND A VERTICAL SECTION OF THE FACE AND NECK.

in this section we start to follow the book as it starts to describe some of the basic functions in areas of the brain. The sexual be much more enlightening once we have the pictures up (chart 1). For now the language sounds somewhat overdone, however forth. The language was actually fairly straightforward and basic.

What the Plate Shows - as we progress in our anatomical core says of study, our tension is firmly and deeply fixed in wonder and amazement at the marvelous mechanism revealed in the sublime profundity and grandeur brought out in this magnificent artistic plate. it brings before our astonished vision the beautiful proportions and symmetry of the human brain as it lays in situ within its bony castle; and as we look upon its way becalmed Aleutians we naturally turn our thoughts to the hidden mysteries of mind and to its superiority over matter, and to the illimitable intellectual properties,powers and capacity of the mind, that lay quietly slumbering in the depths of the human brain, for the mind of man surpasseth all things of human conception or construction. Below this mighty throne of reason and intelligence, on the left, we observed the cerebellum or lesser brain, I found from whence all the vegetative or organic functions of life — as respiration, beating of the heart, digestion, etc. — receive their inspiration and supply of vital force.

there are two more parts that go along with this section of this chapter, the next section is the “view of the eye” and then the “the neck muscles” section. as these next two sections are relatively sure we will cover those together in the next article.
