Description:
Originally published in 1970, this classic text is now reissued with a new preface in which the author reflects on the book's argument, its reception, and its place in ongoing research on the problem of understanding human nature: the issues raised by Darwin, Marx and Freud. The author examines early ideas on the nature and localization of the functions of the brain in light of the philosophical constraints on science in the 19th century.
