The Human Brain

Paper Summary:

The author examines the different ways in which the structure of the brain has been conceived, and looks at some of the areas of the brain associated with different functions such as "neurons," the resultant effects if these are damaged, the spinal cord, external stimuli to the brain and memory function.

From the paper:

"Beneath and behind the cerebral cortex, at the base of the brain, lies the cerebellum or "little brain." The cerebellum is most closely associated with coordinating voluntary movement (that is, movement under our conscious control) and with remembering complex physical tasks such as riding a bicycle or performing the steps in a dance."
