The second essay discussed the sensibility of the meninges, the insensibility of the brain, the structure of the nerves, and a criticism of Haller's doctrine of irritability. The six folding copperplates depict a male and female "ourang-outang," infantile spina bifida, and aspects of the muscle and nerve structure."].
