The most amazing structure in the universe... the human brain. It can hold far more information than most computers, is self-rewiring, constantly adapting to its environment, and is found within each of us. Here is neuroscience written clearly enough for a middle schooler to understand, yet comprehensively enough to talk to a professional about the subject. There are real-life stories, scenarios you see every day, things that will get you thinking about exactly what the wiring of the human brain means... how you see the world... and more. This can be used for a class, as chapters are deliberately short to be read in one sitting; 32 chapters are ideal for a science course that will last a year.
