His early training in physiology has influenced all his work as a clinician and enabled him to publish an important series of papers, chiefly in 'Brain', analysing in accordance with established physiology the clinical phenomena found in spastic paralysis, decerebrate rigidity, and cerebellar ataxia. This work, together with associated papers on reflex grasping, the rigidity of paralysis agitans and on other nervous disorders, has been of high value for the progress of clinical neurology, a field in which he has earned wide esteen for his critical guidance of other investigators. List of 24 papers appended. |
