Recent explorations in the neurosciences have been progressing
towards an understanding of the relationship between brain struc
ture and brain function. Having passed through an era which may be
described as one of a localisationist philosophy, in which discrete
brain areas were seen to subserve only discrete functions, the
perspective of brain-behaviour relationships has advanced in recent
years to an appreciation that a more holistic approach is not only
heuristically valid, but is also most likely to lead to future
advances. The close relationship between the mind and the brain has
been appreciated since the time of Hippocrates when he opined 'men
ought to know that from nothing else but thence [from the brain]
comes joys, delights, laughter and sports, and sorrows, griefs,
despondency and lamentations ... and by this same organ we become
mad and delirious and fears and terrors assail us'. In the
nineteenth century, particularly in France and Germany, descrip
tions of what are now recognised to be independent neurological
diseases emerged following empirical clinical observations. Investi
gation led to the identification in many cases of underlying struc
tural abnormalities which could be linked to pathological changes.
