(2) K-3 Simon explains each major component of the body's electrical system. Carefully plotted explanations cover each region of the brain and the spinal cord, and electronic scans magnify minute cells of the brain and nervous system. The variety of photographic views and the lucid presentation provide an absorbing introduction to this amazing system that "can do more jobs than the most powerful computer ever made."
