For example, damage to specific areas of the brain, such as that caused by a head injury or cerebrovascular accidents (i.e., strokes), can cause specific deficits in speech, facial movements, or use of the extremities.

That suggests it is made of two organs—and you may not even think of the spinal cord as an organ—but the nervous system is a very complex structure. Within the brain, many different and separate regions are responsible for many different and separate functions.

The nervous tissue can be visibly differentiated between white and gray matter. This difference is due to a substance called myelin, that insulates neurons. The nervous system (NS) can be divided anatomically in central nervous system (CNS) which includes brain and spinal cord, and peripheral nervous system (PNS) which includes nerves and ganglia. Functionally the NS can be divided in somatic, autonomic and enteric divisions.

It consists of the somatic nervous system for voluntary movements and the autonomic nervous system for involuntary functions. Sensory neurons trigger signals that undergo neural integration, linking sensory inputs with cognitive functions. The system is essential for perception, reflexes, memory, learning, and emotional regulation.

It includes books, journal articles, and online resources, emphasizing anatomical and physiological principles, alongside pain theories and their clinical implications. Figures and illustrations are noted to aid in comprehending sensory processes and pain pathways.
