Description
Have you ever wondered what our brain is actually for? Renowned neuroscientist Lisa Feldman Barrett presents the latest findings from neuroscience research. In seven brief chapters and one story about brain development, she sheds light on this mysterious object we have stored in our skulls. You will learn how brains evolved, what their structure is (and why that structure matters), and how your brain collaborates with other brains to create all your experiences. Additionally, you will discover how outdated popular myths about the 'reptilian brain', the battle between emotions and thinking, and between genetics and environment are. The book Seven and a Half Chapters About the Brain will entertain both lay readers and experienced scientists; it is full of surprises, humor, and important insights into human nature.
