The progress made in understanding the insula in the decade following an earlier review
(Augustine, Neurol. Res., 7 (1985) 2–10) is examined in this review. In these ten years …

The main impetus for our writing this review was the plethora of recent findings relating to
the intrinsic electrophysiological properties of central neurons and to the characteristics of …

The human insula is hidden in the depth of the cerebral hemisphere by the overlying frontal
and temporal opercula, and consists of three cytoarchitectonically distinct regions: the …

The present edition of The Human Central Nervous System differs considerably from its
predecessors. In previous editions, the text was essentially confined to a section dealing …

The insula sends neural efferents to cortical areas from which it receives reciprocal afferent
projections. A collective consideration of afferents and efferents indicates that the insula has …

Amygdalo‐cortical projections were analyzed in the macaque monkey (Macaca fascicularis)
in a series of experiments in which 3H‐amino acids were injected into each of the major …

The superior temporal polysensory area, or STP, lies in the upper bank and fundus of the
anterior portion of the superior temporal sulcus of the macaque (12)(see Fig. 1). It is …

Neuropsychological studies have recently demonstrated that the macaque monkey
perirhinal (areas 35 and 36) and parahippocampal (areas TH and TF) cortices contribute …

The projections to the frontal cortex from the various subdivisions of the posterior parietal
region in the rhesus monkey were studied by means of autoradiographic technique. The …

The monkey mesial area 6 comprises two distinct cytoarchitectonic areas: F3
[supplementary motor area properly defined (SMA‐proper)], located caudally, and F6 (pre …
