In recent decades, developments in research technologies and therapeutic advances have generated immense public recognition for neuroscience. However, its origins as a field, often linked to partnerships and projects at various brain-focused research centres in the United States during the 1960s, can be traced much further back in time.

“Stahnisch has done a phenomenal job putting together the puzzle of the foundation of neuroscience … It is hard to believe that this vital and authoritative book has not been written before. Stahnisch deserves credit for his ability to recognize a gap in the literature, draw connections between his research on the plights and tribulations of neuroscientist refugees, and connect that to the birth of modern neuroscience.” Journal of the History of the Neurosciences

“Stahnisch’s outstanding historiography of the precursors of modern neuroscience is highly recommended not only for historians of science and, more specifically, those concerned with neuroscience but also for a broad audience interested in medicine, cultural history, emigration history, and constellation studies as well as philosophy and the development of theory and circulation of knowledge.” University of Toronto Quarterly
