In it I am very imprudent, cross swords with your friend Wernicke, with Lichtheim and Grashey, and even scratch the high and mighty idol [Theodor] Meynert [Freud's former teacher at the University of Vienna]. I am very curious to hear what you will say about this endeavor'" (Norman). "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).
