"Freud's treatise on aphasia [loss or impairment of the ability to use words]... was little known or appreciated by contemporary neurologists [of the 850 copies printed, only 257 were sold over nine years and the remainder of the edition was pulped], but Freud always regarded it as the most significant of his neurological writings... Departing from the mechanical views of the Helmholtz school, Freud approached the development of speech and reading from a psychological standpoint... Freud dedicated this book to his older colleague and mentor, Joseph Breuer, with 'friendly admiration,' but was disappointed in Breuer's seeming disdain of this gesture" (Norman F15). Grinstein 2; Jones I, pp. 233-236; Standard edition 189lb; Stanford 21. A FINE COPY IN ORIGINAL WRAPPERS.
