| Summary: |
A couple of weeks ago I asked if anybody knew of a good up-to-date video about the brain, for use in a senior level cognitive science course. Thanks to Yoko Okita, Gregory Ward, and colleagues Mimi Bentley and Julia Falk for responding. Unfortunately exactly what I was looking for, which was something fairly high-level, with technical details about the functioning of the brain illustrated, doesn't seem to exist, but here are some possibilities: (1) Scientific American Frontiers film called 'Pieces of Mind' (Jan. 1997). Narrated by Alan Alda, who also appears a lot. 10 minute segments on split brain patients, memory, etc. (2) The Mind series (1988) has 9 hour shows on e.g. language, thinking, etc. (3) The Brain series (1984?) has a number of hour shows on learning & memory, lateralization, etc. (4) The Discovery channel had a 2 hour series 2 years ago about the brain. >From their web site (www.discovery.com) I learned the following: The Brain: Our Universe Within is available on home video by calling 1-800-587-1818. |
