Discover the brain

The brain serves as the organisational and integration centre of our nervous system – it controls vital functions, gives rise to thoughts and feelings, and is the core of our being. This publication will introduce you to its anatomy, functions, and processes, and you will delve into the secrets that modern neuroscience is uncovering. You will learn about the development of the brain, how it uses the information presented to it by our senses, and about diseases and disorders that can prevent it from functioning correctly. The book is supplemented with interesting photographs and a number of diagrams and infographics, making it an excellent first step in getting to know this fascinating organ.
