Cerebrovascular disease is today the cause of death in a fifth of the population in countries of modern technology. It seems legitimate that society expects medi- cine to analyse the causes of this menace and, as far as it is possible, to cure its sequelae and prevent its origin. Even when the patients survive, sequelae such as herni-or monoplegia, aphasia and visual deficits severely lirnit the mode of life of those afflicted. This book tries to show the methods by which medicine is striving to investi- gate and analyse the causes of this important condition-cerebrovascular disease. For helping us in our efforts to overcome cerebrovascular disease, I wish to thank all those who contributed to this most important problem. I am most grateful to Drs. G. R. JOHNSON/Columbus (Ohio), B. MAIR/London and J. H. MILHoRAT/Philadelphia for their help in translation and to the publisher, Springer, for the excellent lay-out of this book.
