"The brain is the great
factory of thought. To it are directed all the forces of nature, forces

impressing on it a slow and continuous motion of evolution." Leonardo
Bianchi (The Mechanism of the Brain and the Function of the Frontal
Lobes, 1922)

nervous system situated within the skull. It includes two cerebral
