Brain Model & Puzzle – Anatomy and Functional Areas of the Brain (Norton Series on Interpersonal Neurobiology)

Description

Product Description An ideal tool for helping your clients to visualize the complexities of the brain and mental health disorders—and a useful refresher for practitioners who find brain anatomy overwhelming—this color-coded brain puzzle puts it all in perspective, allowing users to deconstruct the major functional areas of the cerebral cortex to see exactly how and where they fit together. Each section of the brain is a removable piece. All the major cortex areas are represented, in a parietal view—visual, associative, motor, auditory, emotional, sensory association, olfactory, somatosensory, Wernicke’s area, areas governing higher mental functions, and the cerebellum. A legend is included indicating what each of the functional areas is responsible for, from short-term memory and hunger, to language comprehension and creativity, and the ability to concentrate. Fun as well as educational, this hands-on model will help you engage your clients—and brush up on your own knowledge of brain anatomy. Directions 1. Remove the puzzle pieces from the packaging. 2. Use the legend to identify each functional area of the brain. 3. Assemble the puzzle by placing each piece in its corresponding location according to the legend. 4. Once assembled, use the puzzle to learn about the brain's functional areas and mental health concepts.
