Title: The Bard on the brain
Description: "Thirty-five of the most beautiful passages from Shakespeare's plays are given here, together with stunning images of the brain from researchers around the world. To this intoxicating mix are added performance photos of acclaimed British and American actors - such as Morgan Freeman as Petruchio, Sir Ian McKellan as Prospero, Alfre Woodard as Paulina, and Anthony Hopkins as King Lear - from celebrated Shakespeare companies. The result of this partnership among scientist, scholar, and Shakespeare is a unique view of the human drama and a wonderfully revealing perspective on the brain."--Jacket.
