Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. How do the billions of connections between neurons in our brain change as we learn and remember? This is the story of the discovery and the discoverer of synaptic pruning, the process of synapse elimination central to making us who we are. Taking the reader from Professor Peter Huttenlocher's childhood in wartime and post-war Germany to his emigration to the US to reunite with his mother and the launch and progress of a career in medicine and research, we uncover the motivations and process of scientific discovery that led to an unexpected leap in our understanding of the human brain. Decades after the discovery, the importance of synaptic pruning to early learning, autism, schizophrenia, Alzheimer's disease and other conditions are now in the process of being uncovered. An engaging story of the discovery of synaptic pruning and the discoverer. From childhood in wartime/post-war Germany through to a US career in medicine and science, Peter Huttenlocher lived an inspiring life. Scientific discovery is brought alive throughout, including explorations of current work on autism, schizophrenia and Alzheimer's. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. Seller Inventory # 9781009267052
