Here is what people are saying about the The Second Brain : A Groundbreaking New Understanding of Nervous Disorders of the Stomach and Intestine
3 Star Rating  "Less interesting than the title suggests"2009-10-21
- Reviewed By pcm597
This book provides a more complete description of the digestive system than most people would want.

It describes evidence that the gut is controlled by an independent nervous system. Contrary to what the title suggests, only a small part of the book talks about that, and the implications of this independence seem minor. The book is more about biochemistry than neuroscience.
 
5 Star Rating  "A fascinating personal story of an important medical discovery"2009-09-10
- Reviewed By User: A165WQY8C7R0R8
This is an engaging personal story of the discovery of a neurotransmitter important in the brain and the gastrointestinal system in humans. Treatments for depression and some crippling belly complaints are based on the initial discoveries made by Dr. Gershon and other researchers, in diverse areas of medical science around the world. Many years ago I as involved with research on what eventually became known as the enteric nervous system and know many of the people and intimate stories described in this book. The value of this book is to learn not only further details and more stories but to enjoy how Dr. Gershon tells his story of discovery, perserverance, acquisition of knowledge and finally acceptance of his work by the medical community. Dr. Gershon's story is valuable to any inquisitive person who asks why, reaches barriers in knowledge, and follows the trail of information until he or she gets the answer. His is a story of having fun while trying to do good for others. Dr. Gershon's brilliance is not only his problem-solving capacity but his willingness to share knowledge plus mentor others, and his self-effacing Jewish humor. I thoroughly enjoyed this book!

4 Star Rating  "the science of digestion"2008-10-01
- Reviewed By User: ANKJM9TLYB315
This book describes the author's research into the function of the digestive system, with emphasis on the amazing complexity of its neural control, which operates largely independent of the central nervous system (and independent of our consciousness as well). The book is very thorough, taking you through the gut step by step from one end to the other. There are some abstruse technical parts, but overall the book can be followed by the layman without too much difficulty. The paperback version is a real bargain in terms of the information you get.
 
3 Star Rating  "The history of enteric nervous system research"2008-09-26
- Reviewed By User: A3IDVS6TTPX6C1
This book narrates the developmental research on the enteric nervous system. It has a lot of specialized information for its 314 pages, narrating in detail most of the steps that lead to the current ideas. The explanations include basic concepts as well as more complex ones, and covers the subject extensively, including genetics and embriology. It does so in a very illustrative and clear manner. There is also a long list of "who's who and who did what" in the various researches. There is a special focus in Hirschsprung's disease. It is interesting to see how medical research develops, the dead ends, the opposite views that become cooperative explanations, the surprises that lead to new routes, the renewal of old observations.
It is not a book for those who search treatment for their personal health problems. Personally, I was expecting a little more information concerning gut functioning and mood, but that is just me. The book is very well written, interesting, but prepare yourself for a big load of detailed information.
