Summary Introduction

Introduction:

Working of brain and the correlation of brain’s structure to its function is very important. In 1861, the French neurologist Paul Broca found that a patient who had lost the ability to speak had damage in part of his left frontal cortex. Other patients with loss of speech also showed damage in that area, known as Broca’s area later. Since then, researchers have made several reports of behavioral impairments after brain damage.
