Binding Unknown, 2004 - Buy it now for $7.49 Paperback, 2005 - Buy it now for $2.97 (Save 80%) Synopsis In this combination of medical history and biography, science essayist Carl Zimmer discusses the discovery of the human brain in 17th-century England, and the subsequent experiments that revealed how it functioned. Zimmer focuses closely on the work of a group of Oxford scientists including Thomas Willis, a doctor who performed the first autopsy on a human body, and whose dissections of the brain taught him what have become the foundations of modern neuroscience. He also discusses the work of Robert Boyle, who established the experimental method, and Robert Hooke, who coined the word "cell" to describe the smallest unit of biology. The book includes an examination of the religious and ethical conflicts presented by these first experiments on the brain. Illustrations by Christopher Wren accompany the text.

Kirkus Reviews (11/01/2003) "Carl Zimmer's illuminating book charts a fascinating chapter in the soul's journey....[T]imely." New York Times Book Review (04/04/2004) "Immaculately researched, full of sharp insights, deeply thoughtful and written with passion and style, SOUL MADE FLESH is a compelling work of history, and all the more rewarding for having one foot planted so firmly in the present."
