TOP OF THE WEEK:
RADICAL NEW BREAKTHROUGHS IN MAPPING THE BRAIN: The brain is one of the final frontiers of human discovery. Now, new imaging techniques and new technologies are allowing scientists to draw detailed maps of how the brain functions: how it sees shapes and objects, how it hears music, even how it understands language. Meet PET and SQUID, two innocent-sounding devices that coolly savage old notions about how the mind works. Society: Page 66.

JAPAN, U.S. STYLE: Some big investors are demanding that Japanese firms, for the first time, pay more attention to things like quarterly dividends, largely because of the slumping stock market. In fact, Japan watchers say the country has already started down the road toward the short-term, run-and-gun capitalism that has defined American business. Business: Page 53.

ARTHUR ASHE'S SECRET: After brain surgery in 1988, tennis great Arthur Ashe learned that he had AIDS. Until last week, that was his secret. Then a newspaper inquiry thrust Ashe's private life into the public eye. Contributing Editor Frank Deford, a friend of Ashe's, describes the family's struggle to cope with this unwanted publicity and discusses the issue of AIDS and privacy. Lifestyle: Page 62.
