Informational Book

After viewing an excellent pbs science program on strangeconditions caused by physical problems with the brain. I wanted to continue the journey and shopped around for a book that would explore the brain in more depth. This bookpresents a macro view of the brain and a thought provoking experiment that explored the interaction between the conscious and subconscious. The book is easy to read, has supporting graphics and is a execellent way to learn the generalities of the brain processing. However, don't expect all questions to be answered. The science of the brain has a long way to go. I would have liked more theories and expert speculation to suppliment science's unknowns. I read it cover to cover.
