About this book
The second and the other two volumes offer the scientific community, the works and thoughts of Santiago Ramon y Cajal by the faithful rendition of the original Spanish version of the "Texture of the Nervous System of Man and the Vertebrates" (1899-1904), with additional facts contained in the French translation (1909-1911). These non-English versions are being quoted an average of 200 times yearly in the scientific literature. In sum, the collection represents the - definitive Cajal - to be used by scientists and scholars interested in the original writings of probably the most prominent neuroscientist of all times.
