  Part of an updated series on the body, with an emphasis on health education, this book concentrates on the brain and nervous system. It includes the most up-to-date medical thinking and stresses a positive attitude to health. It looks at the body's control centre, the brain and the nervous system which distributes messages from the brain to every part of the body. Disorders that may affect the brain and nervous system are examined and consolidated with up-to-date information on research into degenerative problems, such as Alzheimer's disease and an important new section on mental illness.
