This assay is not a history of the pituitary gland, or an abbreviated life of Cushing, or a comprehensive review of hypophysial endocrinology. What is attempted is a short evaluation of this medical "classic" as a contribution to the history of ideas about the function of the anterior pituitary and about clinical disorders of the gland.
本分析并非垂体腺的历史,也不是库欣生平的简略介绍,亦非垂体内分泌学的全面综述。本文试图对这部医学“经典”作一个简短的评价,以探讨其对有关垂体前叶功能及该腺体临床病症的观念史所做的贡献。
