Text Appearing Before Image:
Fig. 20. Diagram.

As these motor-regions are in duplicates (one for each 256 THE HUMAN BEAIN

If theinjury is confined to a single tract of the motor-region, theparalysis is confined to the limb or member controlled bythat tract. So that now, when a surgeon is called to a caseof right or left paralysis, he has only to ascertain what limbsor members are affected, in order to determine the localitywhere the injury was suffered in the opposite hemisphere. 2.—The second fact recently discovered is, that the pure-ly-intellectual or mental faculties occupy other definite tractsof the brain-cortex, hut in only one of the two hemispheres;and that thus we do all our thinking in only one half of thebrain.
