The latest issue of Neuron Magazine has a cool cover diagram of the human brain, drawn by a cartographer as a topographic map of “Brainland” with contour lines and relief shading. Not a lot of detail on the Neuron webpage, but there’s a slightly larger version here, with poster-size copies for sale.
