Embossed stamp on title a stamp on the head of the first page ex-libris of the Worchester Hospital and Arthur Edwards Lyons on the front endpaper. Moses Allen Starr's "Brain surgery" was the first American book on neurosurgery published the same year as Macewen's pioneering neurosurgical classic. Moses Allen Starr 1854-1932 'Professor of Neurology in the College pf Physician and Surgeons at Columbia University New York City' "had plans for a career in classical culture when he graduated from Princeton and embarked for Germany to study Greek and Roman history. In Berlin however several visits to Helmholtz's laboratory revived a latent interest in natural science. He returned to his native New York graduated from the College of Physicians and Surgeons P&S Columbia University did a residency at Bellevue Hospital then returned to Europe to work at Heidelberg Vienna and Paris. On return to New York he set up a laboratory in his home and in 1884 published an essay on the sensory tracts of the central nervous system elucidating some of the then-current questions of myelination. Starr's regard as an American pioneer in the field of cerebral localization stemmed from his participation in a symposium on that subject with the famous English neurologist David Ferrier and neurosurgeon Victor Horsley who were delegates to the 1888 Congress of American Physicians and Surgeons in Washington D.C. He became professor of nervous diseases at the Montreal Neurological Institute. During neurosurgical operations they electrically stimulated the surface of the exposed unanesthetized brains of patients who were talking. On-going speech was blocked by excitation of the parietal-temporal area the inferior frontal area and the supplemental motor area of the left hemisphere Penfield & Roberts 1959. Those experimental protocols were a continuation of Penfield's long quest to add to the knowledge of body representations on the neocortex." H.W. Magoun & L.

"Die andere bedeutende jüdische Medizinerfamilie in Frankenberg war die Familie Lissard. Deren erster Vertreter Moses Lissard stammte aus Amöneburg wo er am 29. Juni 1835 als Sohn eines in sehr dürftigen Verhältnissen lebenden jüdischen Lehrers geboren wurde.15 Nach dem Besuch der Gymnasien in Fulda und Marburg begann er an der Philippina das Studium der Medizin. Ein Antrag vor der geforderten Studienzeit von vier Jahren zum Fakultätsexamen zugelassen zu werden wurde im April 1860 vom Kurfürsten abgelehnt trotz Befürwortung durch die Fakultät.16 Anschließend studierte er noch eine Zeit lang an der Universität Würzburg. Das Thema seiner Marburger Dissertation aus dem Jahr 1861 lautete: Tracheotomie beim Croup. 1862 legte er in Kassel das Staatsexamen ab. Während seiner Studienzeit in Marburg kam Lissard in engere Beziehung zu Wilhelm Roser einem der berühmtesten Chirurgen seiner Zeit und wurde einer seiner Lieblingsschüler. Als er ein nach seinen Angaben konstruiertes Instrument das als 'Lissard-Rosersche Nachbehandlungskanüle' bekannt wurde in einer Schrift empfahl schrieb Roser dazu die Vorrede. Erst im Frühjahr 1865 erhielt Lissard auf die dringende Bitte des Stadtrats beim kurfürstlichen Medizinalkollegium um Wiederbesetzung der damals vakanten Stelle die Praxiserlaubnis in Frankenberg. ."
