Abstract
This book is the fourth volume of autobiographical essays by distinguished senior neuroscientists. This volume includes autobiographies by 14 notable scientists, who also discuss major events that shaped their discoveries and their influences, as well as people that inspired them and help shape their careers as neuroscientists. This collection of fascinating essays should inform and inspire students and working scientists alike. The general reader may also find the book absorbing, as they are essentially human stories about commitment and the pursuit of knowledge.
