The percussion reactions involved in brain function.
A hypothesis is presented describing the operation of mammalian brains on the basis of rapid percussion chemical reactions and shock waves generated by such reactions. It is shown that the products of these are various chemical compounds identified as present in the brain. The manner in which the brain deals with various external optical, sonic pressure, and chemical phenomena is described. The origin and possible relief of disabling conditions related to brain action are discussed on the basis of the hypothesis.
