Are modern neuroimaging techniques attempts to map out brain functioning any more useful than phrenology's attempt to do the same back in the 18th century? Explain your thoughts.

A good approach to completing this assignment would be:

One paragraph on the history of phrenology (search phrenology, Francis Gall, etc.) Next explain some of the various neuroimaging techniques (EEG, fMRI, etc.) Finally compare the limitations of these modern techniques to the faults associated with phrenology to see if this comparison is justified
