Summary: A great read!
Review: A great introduction to the brain. This book is a must read before you jump in to other books on neuroscience that may go in to many confusing details. It doesn't skip any aspects, going straight in to history, anatomy, and details of the brain. Neuroscience is called a must for philosophers, by Patricia Churchland, in her book Brain-Wise Studies in Neurophilosophy. I would also suggest greater knowledge of neuroscience to psychologists! As I said, a great starting point, and it's not too "Idiot's Guide" to just be a starting point either... you can end with this book and be satisfied.

Summary: Science Fair Project Savior
Review: I found this book very helpful, especially in my case. I am currently hard at work on a Science Fair project on how musical stimuli effect a mouse's ability to sucessfully navigate and memorize a maze. I found this book very helpful because it decribed all sections of the brain in detail, but so as not to be confusing. However, I did think that this book is pretty obscure, not many people are looking to understand how their brains work and/or have a hobby dealing with neurosciences. But, as for people such as I, this book was a miracle.

Summary: Great introduction to neuroscience
Review: If you're looking for an introduction to the brain, look no further! This book provides a brief history of neuroscience, to the anatomy of the brain, on to more intricate details. It will not leave you confused or with too many useless details. A great read for philosophers who want to know more about the human condition, a must says Patricia Churchland(not this author) in one of her books. A great read for psychologists who maybe need a refersher - or never learned too much about the anatomy.
