Reviews
YA. Scientists have been interested in the brain for centuries, but only recently has technology become sophisticated enough to provide clear pictures of its wonders. This book does a wonderful job of relaying these wonders to general readers. The basic text presents the most important information now available about the brain in language that is easily understood by those without specialized scientific background. Each double-page spread covers some aspect of the brain, such as specific areas, functions, thinking processes, or disorders. A cross-reference system on the recto pages cites connections, complete with page numbers, to other related topics. Anecdotes and case histories, such as the story of Beethoven's deafness and the history of Braille, are interesting and expand on the ideas in the text. The book is lavishly illustrated with pictures, drawings, charts, and other visuals. An excellent resource.?Elva Card, W. T. Woodson High School, Fairfax, VA
