The idea for the present volume grew from discussions that the four
of us had among ourselves and with our colleagues at recent
scientific meetings. All of us were impressed by the wealth of
empirical data that was being generated by investigators interested
in brain damage and recovery from both behavioral and biological
orientations. Nevertheless, we were concerned about the relative
paucity of attempts to evaluate the data provided by new
technologies in more than a narrow context or to present new
theories or reexamine time-honored ideas in the light of new
findings. We recognized that science is guided by new technologies,
by hard data, and by theories and ideas. Yet we were forced to
conclude that, although investi gators were often anxious to
publicize new methods and empirical fmdings, the same could not be
said about broad hypotheses, underlying concepts, or in ferences
and speculations that extended beyond the empirical data. Not only
were many scientists not formally discussing the broad implications
of their data, but, when stimulating ideas were presented, they
were more likely to be heard in the halls or over a meal than in
organized sessions at scientific meetings."
