There have been other posts on books, however this post is for general recommendations -so share yours in the comments.
Here's some authors to check out.
Neuropsychology
Anything by Oliver Sacks - for the first few try 'The Man who Mistook his Wife for A Hat' and 'Hallucination'. Sacks was a prolific writer and had incredible insights
V.S Ramachandran - An author whose 'Phantoms in the Brain' yields great insight to the workings of the human mind. Using no more than a box with a reflective surface, Ramachandran transformed the lives of many with phantom limb syndrome. His other investigations include looking at strange disorders such as Capgras.
Depending on how interested you are there are also texts such as 'The Encyclopedia of neurological disorders.' This has a comprehensive list of diseases and neurological presentations as well as medical interventions.
The other really useful text I use for use in my writing is 'Lishman's Organic Psychiatry.'
Psychology
The textbook I love is 'Gross Psychology' now in its seventh edition I believe. Extremely accessible.
Neuroanatomy
For neuroanatomy there are a number of texts but I opt for 'Nolte's Human Brain: functional neuroanatomy.
Oh that's great Eve thanks very much. I look forward to reading it 👍👍
I have read the "man who mistook...", that is a great book into the world of psychiatry and bizarre disorders.
Thank you Daniel. I was already considering buying Gross Psychology and then I saw your post, now I'm buying it, haha!
Great recomendations! I will most definitely buy 'The Man who mistook his wife for a Hat'
