To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
After passing a variable distance each spinal nerve bifurcates, lateral to the intervertebral foramen, into an anterior and posterior minus (anterior and posterior primary division), giving off, just before its bifurcation, a very small mcningeal ramus (recurrent branch). In connection with the anterior ramus or spinal nerve proper, a sympathetic branch is found called the ramus communicans. (b) Relative Size. The size of the spinal nerves varies greatly. The smallest nerves are connected with ...the two extremities of the spinal cord and with the mid-thoracic region. The coccygeal nerve is the smallest and the next in order of size are the lower sacral and the upper cervical. The largest nerves are con- nected with the cervical and lumbar enlargements of the spinal cord and innervate the upper and lower limbs, respec- tively; the lower cervical and first thoracic for the upper limbs ; the lower lumbar and upper sacral for the lower limbs. Of these, the nerves destined for the lower limbs are the larger.
