[Keziah Stoltz]

Lots of interesting points in neuroscience and how the brain and body interconnect. I read this book for school. I enjoyed it but wouldn’t necessarily read again.

[Stephen]

A good introduction to the biological/neuroscience side of psychology. I would have liked more depth/detail of physiological processes.
