An
early Greek physician,, Alcmaeon in 6th century B..C..,, was the first to claim
that the BRAIN,, not the heart,, is the central organ of sensation and thought..
The first known writing about the BRAIN was found in ancient Sumeria around
4000 B..C..
Eduard
Hitzig (1839-1907) and Gustav (1838-1927) discovered that the right side of the
BRAIN controls the left side of the body and vice versa.. Wilder Penfield
(1891-1976) created a drawing that became known as a homunculus,, which shows
what we would look like if our body parts were as big as the BRAIN space they
take up.. The homunculus has huge eyes,, lips,, hands,, feet,, and a tiny chest,,
little hips,, and small shoulders..
Researchers
at Baylor University have found that children deprived of touch,, play,, and
interaction with others have BRAINs 20-30% smaller than normal for their age..
Child abuse can inhibit BRAIN development in a child and permanently negatively
affect BRAIN development.. During the first few weeks of life,, a babbling baby
utters almost every sound of every known language.. Later,, the ability to make
some sounds vanishes,, which is a case of neural pruning..
