Any good books that are an intro to neuroscience? Like Hawking's Brief History of Time. Not rigorous, but a very inspiring overview. I kind of like the subject, but I know little and I'd like to read something that gives me the passion to start reading more dry and rigorous texts.

What's wrong with that? You can't be an expert in everything, but it's good to have an overview of areas outside your expertise
