Review from The Disordered Mind →
I recommended this to my first year medical students before embarking on their neuroscience course. I LOVE that the author uses the correct anatomic terms to describe brain structures as it helps to provide the “big picture” of associating a structure with a function.

The book is run of the mill material, but the narrator really pulls it down from there. To be fair, his rendering of the book is easily understood and well paced, but his attempts to add character to the voices fails quite badly. There is very little range in in his character voices, which in..
