    “A plant anatomist receiving such samples can remove pickled wood and bark for anatomical study, then dry the remaining portions for inclusion in a xylarium.”
    “Gall's science of “bump reading” would ultimately be abandoned as much for its fixation on social categories as for an inability within the scientific community to replicate its findings. These scientific failings would be exposed by anatomists like Paul Broca (1861) and Carl Wernicke (1874) who pioneered the alternative neuroscientific method of lesion–symptom mapping.”
