儘管其他實驗顯示在神經細胞的大小、數量、排列和相互連接上有一些小的差異,但是就心理-神經的關係而言,這些感官區域彼此之間的明顯的相似性看起來比起微小的'差異更爲令人注目。

解釋:在前後兩個分句之間有一個插入語as far as psychoneural correlations were concerned。在後面的分句中,主語the obvious similarities之後的、修飾主語的成分較長、以至於有很多讀者看到相隔很遠的more remarkable than時一下子反應不過來是什麼比後者更明顯。其簡化形式應爲:similarities seemed more remarkable than differences。
