What reading level is The Functions of the Brain book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
This interpretation receives support from the above-described results of destructive lesions ; and we have, therefore, reasonable grounds for concluding that the gustatory centres are situated at the lower extremity of the temporo-sphenoidal lobes, in close relation with those of smell. This would enable us to explain the occasional occurrence in man of anosmia and ageusia as the result of severe blows on the head, especially the vertex. A blow in this region causes counterstroke of the base of... the brain, particularlv in the region of the olfactory centres. No doubt many of the cases of so-called loss of taste and smell are merel}^ cases of loss of smell only, the impairment of taste extending only to the per- ception of flavours, which, as is well known, are compounded- of taste and smell together. But there are cases in which both smell and taste proper are impaired or abolished by cranial injuries, ' and it is permissible to suppose that this may be caused by concussion and contusion of the lower ex^ tremities of the temporo-sphenoidal lobes, where the olfactory centres certainly, and the gustatory centres in all probability, are situated.
