The Brain and Nervous System
Library Binding
(Raintree Feb. 12, 2004)
The brain is the control center of the body, the site of our thoughts, feelings, and memories. The brain also regulates hundreds of body parts and processes. We will look at the network of nerves that branches from the brain and spinal cord and carries messages all over the body. We will discuss the effects of damage to the brain and nervous system and examine the importance of sleep in maintaining a healthy body and mind.
