Abstract
In a study as complex as that of concussion it is vital straight away to outline, without equivocation, my terms of reference. And this I do by stating that the objects of this communication are three-fold. To consider:
-
1.
The clinical states of unconsciousness that result from injury to the brain.
-
2.
The site of the pathological lesion.
-
3.
The nature of the lesion.
