Résumé : Whilst the origins of the words “neurology” and “neurologist” may be traced to the seventeenth and nineteenth centuries respectively, “neuroscience” and “neuroscientist” prove to have been of much more recent coinage, probably in the third quarter of the twentieth century. This article briefly explores those origins and then asks whether it is legitimate to fit the terms retrospectively to practice and practitioners investigating the nervous system in earlier times.
