| Abstract: | By mental deficiency is meant a non-development of the mental faculties, such as feeble-mindedness, Imbecility, idiocy, cretinism and other states of mind designated by the general term "amentia". Comparative anatomical studies of healthy brains and deficient ones have proved that the cells composing the grey matter of the cerebral cortex of mentally defective persons are deficient in number, defective ill structure and irregular in position. |
