'Highly accessible, content-rich and eminently readable . . .
Fascinating and informative . . . popular science at its best.' -
The Observer 'Subtly radical . . . It presents a revelatory model
of consciousness that will be completely new to most readers' - The
Guardian 'Best Reads For Summer' Have you ever wondered why you
have a brain? Let renowned neuroscientist Lisa Feldman Barrett,
bestselling author of How Emotions Are Made, demystify that big
grey blob between your ears . . . In seven short chapters (plus a
brief history of how brains evolved), this slim, entertaining, and
accessible book reveals mind-expanding lessons from the front lines
of neuroscience research. You'll learn where brains came from, how
they're structured (and why it matters), and how yours works in
tandem with other brains to create everything you experience. Along
the way, you'll also learn to dismiss popular myths such as the
idea of a 'lizard brain' and the alleged battle between thoughts
and emotions, or even between nature and nurture, to determine your
behaviour. Sure to intrigue casual readers and scientific veterans
alike, Seven and a Half Lessons About the Brain is full of
surprises, humour, and important implications for human nature - a
gift of a book about our most complex and crucial organ.
