How does learning transform us biologically? What learning
processes do we share with bacteria, jellyfish and monkeys? Is
technology impacting on our evolution and what might the future
hold for the learning brain? These are just some of the questions
Paul Howard-Jones explores on a fascinating journey through 3.5
billion years of brain evolution, and discovers what it all means
for how we learn today. Along the way, we discover how the E. coli
in our stomachs learn to find food why a little nap can help bees
find their way home the many ways that action, emotion and social
interaction have shaped our ability to learn the central role of
learning in our rise to top predator. An accessible writing style
and numerous illustrations make Evolution of the Learning Brain an
enthralling combination of biology, neuroscience and educational
insight. Howard-Jones provides a fresh perspective on the nature of
human learning that is exhaustively researched, exploring the
implications of our most distant past for twenty-first-century
education.
