In this chapter, the authors discuss both the physiological structures of brain plasticity and the pathological structures that reveal unknown aspects of brain plasticity. In particular, they consider the ontogenetic development of neurocerebral processes by detecting the relationship between genetic constraints and the possible variables related to developmental processes. The relationship between physiology and pathology, synesthetic integration and the neotenic nature of the human brain, which should foster more opportunities for functional plasticity, is emphasized
