Abstract
The author, who dare not treat here the historical details themselves of neuropsychology, concentrated a focus in three topics which may have enough meaning today, and methodology or the way of thinking was argued. The First “Debates on Aphasia” (1908), the 2nd, “Disconnection Syndromes” raised by Geschwind (1965) and the 3rd, it refers to the new interpretation of “simultanagnosia” proposed from a point of cognitive neuropsychology. Three subtypes of simultanagnosia ( “semantic form” , “perceptual form” and “attentive form” ) were proposed from a clinical neuropsychological point of view.
