Abstract
The year 1973 marks the twenty-fifth anniversary of the American Academy of Neurology and thus is an appropriate time to review the history of the organization. In this article, the formative years of the Academy are discussed in detail, with particular emphasis on the people on the neurologic scene in the late 1940s and on the circumstances that led to the formation of the Academy. This history is given in the context of the development of neurology since the mid-1800s and its progress during the maturing years of the Academy.
