In December, I asked for suggestions for teaching brain parts and their
functions. Thanks to everyone who responded on list.
In addition to those suggestions, I got a great suggestion off-list from
Kathy Morgan. She said:
"I use vinettes (mostly from Sacks, but see also work by William Calvin
and by Harold Klaawans, who also write for the lay audience) for each
major brain part I introduce."
and later pointed out that much of Calvin's work is available at:
http://faculty.washington.edu/wcalvin/index.html (for free!)
I have been reading Klawaans since receiving her message and have found
him very interesting and useful. So, I just wanted to pass these
recommendations along in case anyone besides me had missed these
authors!
