This anatomist was also aware that the fluid was formed and contained in the sub-arachnoid cavity. It is, however, to M. Majendie that we are chiefly indebted for our present knowledge of the physiological history of this fluid. Majen- die's first researches were given to the public in his Journal de Physiologic for the year 1827, and he has lately collected the results of his inquiries in a volume entitled " Recherches Physiologiques et Cliniques sur le Liquide Cephalo-rachidien," and published in 1842. The cerebro-spinal fluid is found wherever.
