Notes Concerning the Disease States of the Three Subjects in Whom the Conditions of the Blood Circulation in the Brain Were Studied -- 2. Description of the Equipment Used to Record the Pulse of the Brain and of Other Parts of the Body -- 3. General Considerations Regarding the Configuration of the Pulse -- 4. Concerning the Response of the Cerebral Circulation During Increased Mental Activity and With Emotional and Sensory Perceptions -- 5. Sleep and Its Relationships to Cerebral Blood Flow -- 6. Reflections on the Nature of Sleep and Its Concomitant Phenomena -- 7. On the Fluctuations of the Cerebral Tracings That Are Controlled by the Movements of the Vessels and of the Heart -- 8. Concerning the Movements of the Blood Vessels in the External Ear of the Rabbit -- 9. The Influence of Respiratory Movements on the Blood Circulation in the Brain and in the Lungs -- 10. Experimental Critique of the Investigations on the Pulmonary Circulation Undertaken by Quincke and Pfeiffer, by Funke and Latschenberger, and by Bowditch and Garland -- 11. Influence of the Respiratory Movements on the Systemic Blood Pressure -- 12. Influence of Amyl Nitrite on the Blood Circulation in the Brain -- 13. Anemia and Hyperemia of the Brain -- 14. Concerning the Blood Circulation Inside the Intact Skull -- 15. Investigations Into the Movements of the Cerebrospinal Fluid -- Index.
The pioneer in studies of changes in brain flow that underlie modern brain imaging was Angelo Mosso. This volume provides for the first time an English translation of his historic 1881 volume, together with a rich commentary by two leaders of modern brain imaging, Marcus Raichle and Gordon M. Shepherd. The volume offers unique insights into the origins of brain imaging and also the rise of modern cognitive neuroscience. It will be of interest to neuroscientists, neurologists, psychologists, psychiatrists, historians of science and medicine, and the general public.
