In "Theatre of the Mind", Jay Ingram, whose past scientific
investigations include the properties of honey on toast and the
complexities of the barmaid's brain, tackles one of the most
controversial of subjects: consciousness. Scientists have long
tried to map our brains and understand how it is that we think and
are self-aware, but what do we really know? Any discussion of the
brain raises more questions than answers, and Ingram illuminates
some of the most perplexing ones: what happens in our minds when
we're driving and we suddenly realise that we don't remember the
last few miles and how do we remember images, sounds, and aromas
from our past so vividly, and why do we often recreate them so
differently in our dreams. Ingram's latest book is a mind-bending
experience, a cerebral, stylish ride through the history,
philosophy, and science of the brain and the search for the
discovery of the self.
