Similarly, auditory areas are marked , general sensation areas by s, gen- eral motor areas by m, and olfactory areas by olf. One of the most curious and interesting of these discoveries is that of the speech area, aph. This, of course, was discovered by observation on man—not experiments on animals. It has been long observed that there are cases in which a patient is perfectly intel- ligent and knows what he wants to say, but can not say it. Such an affection is called aphasia. In such cases it is invariably found by post mortem that there is a lesion of a particular convolution of the frontal lobe, especially of the left Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original LeConte, Joseph, 1823-1901.
