FOR MODERN SCIENTISTS, history before
last week s journals is usually ignored compared
with the advances of today. In this book, Or. Gordon
M. Shepherd argues instead that the mid-twentieth
century, especially the
1950s,
was the greatest
decade in the history of modern biology in general
and the study of the nervous system in particular. It
was then that revolutionary advances established
neuroscience
and laid the basis for most of the
fundamental problems that drive research on the
brain today.
The first of its kind, CREATING MODERN
NEUROSCIENCE:
THE REVOLUTIONARY
1950s
covers contributions worldwide and ranges through
dozens of astonishing discoveries at all levels of
the brain, from
DNA
(Watson and Crick), through
growth factors (Hamburger and Levi-Montalcini),
excitability
(Hodgkin
and Huxley), synapses (Katz,
Eccies), dopamine and Parkinson s
(Carlsson),
visual
processing
(Hartline,
Kuffler), the cortical column
(Mountcastle),
reticular
activating system (Morruzzi
and Magoun), and
REM
sleep (Aserinsky), to stress
(Selye), learning (Hebb) and memory (HM and Milner),
and many more. The clinical fields are also covered,
from Cushing and Penfield, psychosurgery, and brain
energy metabolism
(Kety),
to most of the major types
of psychoactive drugs in use today (beginning with
Laborit, Delay, Deniker, and chlorpromazine).
Dr. Shepherd, who studied under and has known
many of the participants in these extraordinary
advances, analyzes the creative process underlying
them, showing for students, neuroscientists, and
laymen alike how great science emerges from the
creative interaction between unique personalities,
innovative hypotheses, and novel methods. The brain
is widely acknowledged to be the greatest challenge
in science; this book provides a deeper understanding
of how to meet this challenge. CREATING MODERN
NEUROSCIENCE: THE REVOLUTIONARY
1950s
shows
how history can be a path to understanding how great
science works.
