Abstract
This paper provides a review of some of the major historical developments in synaptic research and neurotransmission since the first appearance of the word 'synapsis' in 1895. The key contributions and inter-relationships of several significant scientists and Nobel Laureates, including Charles Sherrington, Henry Dale, Edgar Adrian and John Eccles are highlighted, and the influence of others such as John Langley and Thomas Elliott is stressed. A recurrent theme is the importance of language and the creation of new words.
