Excellent

Very informative, simple terms, simple pictures that are good for helping comprehension and easy remembering. Excellent for body workers working with children, and those practicing Cranio Sacral Therapy. There's a bad review of the book on here, and I can see that person's point of view... however, I think you need to understand that this is a textbook and foundation for one of Upledger's classes. It's not really rainy day reading, nor is it a medical text. Nor is it "advertising." It is, however, typical Upledger teaching style, and for those interested in learning or studying Upledger's work, this one is a great book to add to the collection.

LMT

An excellent resource book for development and function of the nervous system. Written in an easy to understand language with great illustrations to accompany otherwise complex functions within the human body.

Great book for expectant mothers

Dr. Upledger's "Brain Is Born" proves a delightful read for the curious expectant mother. This book is designed to give the lay reader detailed insight into how a baby is created and develops from fertilization until the baby is born. I found this work fascinating. The whole time I read the book, I reminded myself to make sure and read this book when I'm pregnant. Each week Dr. Uplegder tells you want part of your baby's brain and body is growing and how your health and emotions can affect this growing process. The frequent drawings, while not technical, serve to lighten up a subject-neurology- that would otherwise prove daunting for some readers. If your a super curious pregnant mother that wants to be well informed about your growing baby, you'll want to read this book.

Excellent book for prospective and curious parents!

I found this book to be an excellent source of information valuable to all parents interested in the brain function of their children. Dr. Upledger has a way of taking complicated subjects and making them understandable to non medical people like myself. I found the cartoon drawings very helpful in bringing humor and easing what could be overwhelming or "scary" medical information.
