Abstract

A tool to explore the neuroscience from a historical point of view; that is the impression that one is left with at the end of Brain Renaissance, from Vesalius to Modern Neuroscience by Marco Catani and Stefano Sandrone. It is not, as the title might suggest, a book of systematic history of neuroscience but a convincing attempt to use the fundamental discoveries of Andreas Vesalius as a key to start and develop multiple explorations of the brain. In this book Vesalius is, therefore, a kind of common trunk, a starting source from which have flourished many of the major branches of the modern neuroscience.
