I am so in love with this book.
Eminent neuroscientist takes us on a fascinating journey into the human brain. Brilliant lucid and utterly compelling story that leaves nothing unimagined yet a lot to comprehend about this enigmatic 3-pound jelly residing within us. A must read for all those intrigued by the powers of the brain and it's careful delegation of physical and metaphysical role in making us a unique creation of nature.
