Let me be clear: This is an authoritative, beautifully illustrated, highly informative... comic book. No, not really, but it isn't a book. It's a bunch of illustrations with a little text scattered here and there. Everything consists of two-page spreads on one or another topic. All are illustrated in beautiful color, with both illustrations and photographs. It must have cost a mint to produce.
But it's like a deck of flashcards. There is no narrative. Want a two-page spread on the limbic system? Here it is. Want a detailed description of the limbic system? Sorry, we don't do text.
How you will feel about this depends on what you want. I bought this book because I wanted the very latest research. But I wanted something to read, to help get the big picture. Instead, what I got was a lot of, ahem, big pictures. It's not the same thing. ( )
