Description

Explore the fascinating history of neuroscience with Aranzio's Seahorse and the Search for Memory and Consciousness. Written by prize-winning author Alan J. McComas, this book serves as the final volume in his historical neuroscience trilogy. It follows the scientific journey that led to the discovery of the hippocampus, a deep brain structure identified as being primarily responsible for memory. This account provides a deep look into the field through observations of patients experiencing memory loss and insights gained from ingenious laboratory experiments. McComas presents a compelling argument regarding the nature of the mind, suggesting that the electrical impulse activity of neurons within the hippocampus is what creates consciousness. Readers will learn how consciousness functions as an ever-changing sequence of activity. This book is an excellent resource for those interested in neurology, clinical neurophysiology, and the biological foundations of human thought and memory.
