About How the Brain WorksHave you ever asked yourself why you can't remember anything from before the age of three, why we experience déjà vu, or indeed how a bundle of cells in our heads can produce the remarkable phenomenon that is human consciousness? Drawing on the latest neuroscience research, this visual guide makes the hidden workings of the human brain simple to understand.
How the Brain Works begins with an introduction to the brain's anatomy, showing you how to tell your motor cortex from your mirror neurons. From anatomy, it moves on to function, explaining how the brain works constantly and unnoticed to regulate processes such as heartbeat and breathing and how it collects information from the external world to produce the experiences of sight, sound, smell, taste, and touch. The chapters that follow cover memory and learning, consciousness and personality, and emotions and communication.
There's also a guide to the brain's disorders, including physical problems, such as tumours and strokes, and psychological and functional disorders, ranging from autism to schizophrenia.
Illustrated with bold graphics and step-by-step artworks, and peppered with bite-sized factoids and question-and-answer features, this is the perfect introduction to the fascinating world of the human brain.

关于大脑是如何工作的,你有没有问过自己,为什么三岁以前就什么都记不起来,为什么我们会经历似曾相识,或者说,我们大脑中的一束细胞是如何产生人类意识这一显著现象的?借鉴最新的神经科学研究成果,这一视觉指南使人类大脑的隐藏工作变得简单易懂。
大脑是如何工作的,首先介绍大脑的解剖结构,告诉你如何区分你的运动皮层和镜像神经元。从解剖学上讲,它继续发挥作用,解释大脑如何不断地工作,而不被注意地调节心跳和呼吸等过程,以及它如何从外部世界收集信息,以产生视觉、声音、嗅觉、味觉和触觉的体验。接下来的章节包括记忆和学习、意识和个性、情感和交流。
还有一本关于大脑紊乱的指南,包括身体问题,如肿瘤和中风,以及从自闭症到精神分裂症的心理和功能紊乱。
以大胆的图形和循序渐进的艺术作品为例,加上一口大小的因素和问答功能,这是对人类大脑迷人世界的完美介绍。
