Intro To The Brain

By Bruce Stern

I recently found an interesting tool on the National Geographic website, which has a quick and helpful interactive introduction to the human brain. The  tutorial explains in simple terms the brain's anatomy, some common diseases, and which parts of the brain are stimulated by smells, light, sound, romance, and other stimuli.

The site offers insight into the intricate workings of the brain, many of us are not familiar with. The site defines the common elements of the brain and what primary functions they are responsible for. It also offers an interactive section where the reader can select an area of the brain to visually see where it is located and what tasks that area is responsible for.

You can access the site here.
