The study of brain function is one of the most fascinating pursuits
of m- ern science. Functional neuroimaging is an important
component of much of the current research in cognitive, clinical,
and social psychology. The exci- ment of studying the brain is
recognized in both the popular press and the scienti?c community.
In the pages of mainstream publications, including The New York
Times and Wired, readers can learn about cutting-edge research into
topics such as understanding how customers react to products and -
vertisements ("If your brain has a 'buy button, ' what pushes it?,"
The New York Times, October19,2004),

on the brain," The New York Times, April 20, 2004; "This is your
brain on Hillary: Political neuroscience hits new low," Wired,
November 12,2007), howmen and womenreactto sexualstimulation

distinguishing lies from the truth ("Duped," The New Yorker, July
2, 2007; "Woman convicted of child abuse hopes fMRI can prove her
innocence," Wired, November 5, 2007), and even what separates
"cool" people from "nerds" ("If you secretly like Michael Bolton,
we'll know," Wired, October 2004). Reports on pathologies such as
autism, in which neuroimaging plays a large role, are also common
(for - stance, a Time magazine cover story from May 6, 2002,
entitled "Inside the world of autism").
