And all these little circles are joined to one another by conducting tracks; and thus the picture of the bell excites the centres and the memories. The combination of all these sensory memories or pictures is supposed to make the concept bell. And on this principle in our text-books aphasia has been very simply and satisfactorily explained - satisfactorily to the anatomists. But an idea or concept is much more complicated than this.
