$ 34.00

This book begins with an introduction to the brain's anatomy, using visual explanations to distinguish the difference between motor cortex and mirror neurons. Moving on to function, it explains how the brain works constantly and unnoticed to regulate heartbeat and breathing, and how it collects information to produce the experiences of sight, sound, smell, taste, and touch. Chapters cover memory and learning, consciousness and personality, emotions and communication. Included is a guide to the brain's disorders, including physical problems, such as tumors and strokes, and psychological and functional disorders, ranging from autism to schizophrenia. Bold graphics and step-by-step artworks are sprinkled with bite-sized factoids and question-and-answer features. This is the perfect introduction to the fascinating world of the human brain.
