Written for the nonspecialist, this book brings together the personal visions of some of the major figures in neuroscience and provides a comprehensive exploration of the fundamental issues in current brain research. The eminent contributors--J.Z. Young, Horace Barlow, John Stein, Craig Bailey, Eric Kandel, George Fink, Norman Geschwind, and Colin Blakemore--cover the basic functions controlled by the brain and discuss our current understanding of how the brain subserves those functions. The book will be of interest to neuroscientists and will also provide nonspecialists--particularly scientists in other disciplines, philosophers, psychologists, clinicians, and lay readers--with a thorough introduction to the most extreme, and one of the most exciting, challenges in modern biology.
