Illustrated with over a hundred halftones and drawings, this volume presents a series of profiles that trace the evolution of our knowledge about the brain. Beginning with the ancient Egyptian study of "the marrow of the skull," it takes us on a journey from the classical world of Hippocrates to modern researchers such as Sperry.
