What reading level is Brain And Personality: Or, the Physical Relations of the Brind to the Mind book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In both, therefore, the blindness is the same in nature, namely, mental blindness.
As this inability to recognize visual objects has been frequently observed after localized damage to the brain from disease, the local- ity itself where things perceived by sight are then known has become as well identi- fied as is the word center in the angular gyrus, with the same important deductions about the way by which this mental function comes to be so localized as in the case of the 184 Digitized by Goo...gle THE BRAIN AND PERSONALITY eye word center. That is to say, we learn to know how we know what it is we see by first discovering where this act of knowing is done, and secondly, by establishing the fact that no other place in the whole brain save this knows anything by sight, and also why this is so.
In explanation we shall first state that the primary center of sight in the occipital lobe is in the neighborhood of a wedge-shaped convolution called the cunens. (See Frontis- piece.) This convolution, of course, is found equally in both hemispheres, and that it is directly related to sight is proved by the fact that it is only when the region of this convo- lution is destroyed in both hemispheres that total blindness is produced.
