Nature Neuroscience Editor-in-Chief Sandra Amodt and neurophysiologist prodigy Sam Wong have teamed up to finally talk about «why smart people do stupid things.» To begin with, we are invited to take the test «How well do you know your brain?»; it turns out, of course, that our knowledge is very modest or absent altogether. But then the authors talk in detail and in an accessible way about all the properties of the brain that have at least some significance in our daily life. How the brain changes over time, how emotions work, happiness and love, intelligence and decision making, sleep mechanisms and the difference between the sexes, personality and spirituality … The book has everything from the latest scientific data to relevant literary quotations and practical advice.
