About the book
The Whole and Its Parts tells this remarkable story through 24 short, richly illustrated episodes. From ancient debates about the heart and brain to Galvani’s frog, Golgi and Cajal’s neurons, Broca’s language discoveries, brain maps, neural networks, computational models and modern brain–computer interfaces, the book follows the ideas and experiments that gradually transformed our understanding of the brain.
Written for the curious reader rather than the specialist, it is a visual journey through one of science’s greatest adventures: how we discovered the parts of the brain—and began to understand how they work together as a whole.
