5.0 out of 5 starsA revised classic -- clear and fascinating
By Brad4d VINE VOICE on December 11, 2003
Format: Paperback
Each Tuesday I eagerly turn to the NY Times Science section, hoping to find a new article on brain science. The Times articles on this wide and important subject are among the most clearly written and captivating in all of science today. They seem to follow Einstein's dicta that you should be able to explain any concept -- including relativity -- in terms that a ten-year old child can not only understand, but be interested in. These articles will provide a solid foundation for anyone interested in this wonderful and positive field, especially when combined with a decent text on neuroanatomy to provide a map of what's going on. If more people wrote technical science as clearly and as cheerily as Ms Blakeslee, Ms Brody, or Mr Goleman, I doubt we would be worried about scientific literacy in this country. This book is a wonderful gift for kids from one to ninety-three, and I'd recommend it highly.

5.0 out of 5 starsA Collection of the Best
By A Customer on October 29, 2002
Format: Paperback
The Science team at the NEW YORK TIMES are working hard to keep up with the expanding knowledge of our most vital organ - our brains. This is a collection of their articles from the Decade of the Brain, ending in 2000. The vibrancy of the decade is captured for all who read these stories. For many years, the 1990's will be studied as a time of unparalleled cooperation between scientists, society, and the media. Leading the areas studied will be brain research. The Science staff of the NEW YORK TIMES has been complimented repeatedly in private and public statements by many neuroscientists. Society will continue to look to them for insight on the next generation of investigations.
