The human brain - locked away in its own protective casing and with no moving parts - is the main control centre of the human body. A vast network of nerves runs down from the brain through the spinal cord, spreading out to connect with
every part of the body.
'Bodyscope: Brain Box' takes a close look at the nervous system, guiding the reader around the brain and following the tiny electrical signals as they travel down the nerves to their destination. The book also focuses on our incredible senses, which allow us to interact with the outside world.
