What Makes You Tick?: The Brain in Plain English Book
The Brain in Plain English"Nearly everything we know about the constellations of neurons in the brain we have learned in the past few decades, most of that only within the last few years, and the pace is picking up briskly. . . . Researchers in more than a dozen disciplines are asking Plato's question: How does your internal representation of the world relate to the objective world outside? How does the electrochemical music of the neuron form perceptions, memories, and knowledge? How does it create the mystifying, subjective sense of a `you' within you, and how does it direct your individual and social behavior? Science has joined philosophy in this accelerating effort to define what it means to be alive, and to find the wellspring of our humanity. "The aim of this book is to provide a frame of reference from which to appreciate the exciting advances in neuroscience that appear with increasing frequency on the nightly news. It describes what we know about the brain, how we found out, and what this may mean for the future."-from What Makes You Tick? Read More
