9780595189625: Explorers of the Black Box: The Search for the Cellular Basis of Memory

Synopsis

Explorers of the Black Box is a scientific adventure story. The Black Box is the brain. The Explorers are neuroscientists in search of how nerve cells record memories, and they are as ruthless and dauntless as any soldiers of fortune. The book centers around the early, often-controversial research Nobel-Prize winner Eric Kandel. It takes readers behind the scenes of laboratories at Woods Hole, Columbia, Yale and Princeton to create an absorbing account of how the brain works and of how science itself works.
