Human Brain Coloring Workbook
The complexity of the brain, the house of human consciousness, is so great that scientists are still mystified as to how it works.
For a student, learning the various cellular organizations, cranial nerves, and neural connections can be an intimidating challenge.The Human Brain Coloring Workbook is a break-through approach to understanding the brain's organization and functions.
It features 125 striking, computer-generated illustrations that will help students gain a clear and enduring comprehension of this highly intricate structure.Learning interactively through coloring thoroughly fixes concepts in the mind and takes less time than memorizing from textbooks.
The ideas behind each lesson are amply explained, and more complex subjects are approached through the gradual introduction of simple drawings.After completing the lessons in this book, not only will you understand the brain's basic configurations and functions, you will also have a fully colored and labeled...

The Neurobiology of Taste and Smell
Edited by Thomas E. Finger, Wayne L. Silver, and Diego Restrepo The ability to detect chemicals in one s surroundings is a vital function for organisms ranging from single cells to insects to humans.
The explosion of information provided by molecular and cellular biology has contributed greatly to our understanding of how the chemical senses function in these organisms and is the impetus for the second edition of The Neurobiology of Taste and Smell.
This updated edition contains all-new chapters by many new contributors, although this edition, like the first, is intended to provide an introduction to the field itself.
The second edition incorporates the significant strides that have been made with the application of modern cell and molecular techniques. It includes the following subjects:
Chemical sensitivity and sensibility Olfaction Gustation Genetic models of chemoreception Chemosensory signaling Transduction and the molecular biology of olfaction...
