Product Description

Review

"Shakespeare investigated how the human mind works 400 years ago, whereas brain scientists today have the tools-such as positron emission tomography and functional magnetic resonance imaging-to address the questions that fascinated Shakespeare. It is a happy partnership on the whole: Shakespeare sets the scene for a topic, then The Bard on the Brain raises the curtain on modern neuroscience's investigation of it, adding a bright array of brain scans and photographs from Shakespeare productions. . . . The Bard on the Brain is a valuable way in for anyone eager to learn about the mysteries of the mind and the latest exciting developments in brain science." -- Eleanor Case "New Scientist"


Product Description

Paul Matthews describes the center-stage role of the brain in famous scenes from Shakespeare's plays with the use of colour brain scans. Interwoven with these are the interpretations of many of the most significant soliloquies in all of Shakespeare's plays.
