	Discoveries in the Human Brain: Neuroscience Prehistory, Brain Structure, and Function
	By: Louise H. Marshall, Horace W. Magoun ISBN: 0896034356 Publisher: Humana Press Release Date: 15 January, 1998 Bioscience book rank: 380435	I would not recommend this book unless the areas of the brain are already known to the reader. It was well written and the history of the discoveries are well explained. I had trouble when, for example, the book would say a certain section of the brain was at one time thought to be the seat of all emotions. It would list various experiments that would take place. You ended up knowing the history, but not necessarily the location within the brain, or what the final verdict of that area of the brain actually turned out to be. I am sure with a little introductory background reading about the brain this book would have made more of an impact on me. I believe the author should have expended with a few more paragraphs to tie-in and explain the final result or today's best guess about that area of the brain. I read this book doing research as a criminal defense lawyer. I found it fascinating and very helpful. thanks to editors.
	The Neurosciences and Music (Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, V. 999)
	By: Giuliano Avanzini ISBN: 1573314536 Publisher: New York Academy of Sciences Release Date: October, 2003 Bioscience book rank: 1040932
	Molecular Neurobiology for the Clinician (Review of Psychiatry, Vol 22 No 3) (Review of Psychiatry)
	By: Dennis S. Charney ISBN: 1585621137 Publisher: American Psychiatric Publishing, Inc. Release Date: May, 2003 Bioscience book rank: 1020653	This volume includes several excellent chapters, introducing the reader to a number of developing concepts in the world of psychiatric neuroscience. These topics are alternately discussed on a more general, easy-to-understand level, and in great technical detail - each with their own merits. The reference lists/information are also quite helpful for those wishing to pursue a topic further (for example, a thorough table of mouse knockout studies in which an anxiety-like phenotype was found). Another highlight is the excellent discussion of how the field of psychiatric genetics is coming of age. This book will prove interesting to both basic scientists and clinical psychiatrists, and even to laypersons with a particular interest in this field.

	How the arts develop the young brain: neuroscience research is revealing the impressive impact of arts instruction on students' cognitive, social and emotional ... An article from: School Administrator

	Color Atlas of Neuroscience: Neuroanatomy and Neurophysiology (Thieme Flexibook)
	By: Ben Greenstein ISBN: 3131081716 Publisher: Georg Thieme Verlag Release Date: January, 2000 Bioscience book rank: 1078884	If you just look through the list of topics, you would appreciate how much material has been condensed into this small-sized volume. It is comprehensive in scope. Each topic is complemented by a beautifully designed color-plate--193 in all. It takes much hard work to work through the book. It is best used as an aid to many fuller texts or for review. I hope the material can be developed into a video series like The Universe Within: the Human Genome, or a 3-D CD-rom. Then it will be such a blessing to all students of neuroanatomy and neurophysiology.
