Book Reviews of Molecules and Mental Illness (Scientific American Library Paperback)
Book Review: Excellent primer on the chemistry of the brain.
Summary: 5 Stars
Dr. Barondes makes an incredibly complex subject easy to understand. He packs a great deal of information into a few, well illustrated pages. The book starts in the history of neurology, then explains the structure of neurons and goes on to describe the different brain chemicals and how they work on a molecular level.Because of its clarity, this book would make an excellent textbook for teaching neurochemistry and its interactions with the mind.
