What is The Human Brain: A Guided Tour (SCIENCE MASTERS) about?
"In this accessible book, you will first view the brain with nothing but the naked eye, then learn about the different regions of the brain and their functions and relevance to the operation of the organ as a whole. Then Dr. Greenfield will show you the various problems inherent in the localization of the different brain functions through the application of simple, but familiar, processes like movement and vision. After this, you are ready to examine the brain under the microscope. You will see how brain cells communicate with each other and how such communication can be dramatically modified by drugs. Dr. Greenfield will also lead you on a step-by-step journey as the brain develops from a single fertilized egg to a fully developed organ, constantly changing as a result of experience to create a truly unique individual. Finally, you will explore the mysterious topic of memory - how it works and where it occurs in the brain."--Jacket.
