The Great Cerebral Commissure
This broad nerve cable and lesser bridges connect the two halves of the mammalian brain. If the connections are cut, the organism functions quite well but behaves much as though it had two brains
The Growth of Nerve Circuits
Recent studies of the process of nerve repair have led to a new theory of how the complex networks and pathways of the central nervous system are formed in the embryo
The Eye and the Brain
If the optic nerve of a newt is cut and its eye is turned through 180 degrees, the nerve regenerates and the animal sees upside down. Such results deeply affect our picture of how the nervous system develops
