A compelling and authoritative study of the brain - its past present and future. The human brain is the most complex structure in the known universe. How it works the relationship between mind and brain is one of the most important of scientific questions.

He also investigates how brains develop from a single fertilised egg to
the incredibly complex organ that each human possesses. Against this background he asks the challenging question: what does the future hold for the human brain?
