Abstract
(1) The psycho-physical element is still a matter of theory.
(2) Sensory aphasia both anatomically and clinically is universally accepted.
(3) Visual aphasia is well established anatomically and clinically, although the connection between the anatomical and clinical is variously explained.
(4) Cortical motor aphasia as defined above is firmly established clinically and anatomically.
(5) Subcortical aphasias clinically and anatomically must be accepted.
(6) The zone of speech is a unit composed of partial systems whose relative independence and development vary in different individuals.
(7) Loss of word concepts always causes intellectual defect.
(8) The limit of knowledge to be gained by present methods of clinical and anatomo-pathological examination has not been attained. We especially need complete examinations on intelligent cases capable of introspection with clear-cut lesions.
