This is the eBook version of the printed book.

For 50 years, the world’s most brilliant neuroscientists have struggled to understand how human brains really work. Today, says Dale Purves, the dominant research agenda may have taken us as far as it can--and neuroscientists may be approaching a paradigm shift.

 

In this highly personal book, Purves reveals how we got to this point and offers his notion of where neuroscience may be headed next. Purves guides you through a half-century of the most influential ideas in neuroscience and introduces the extraordinary scientists and physicians who created and tested them.

 

Purves offers a critical assessment of the paths that neuroscience research has taken, their successes and their limitations, and then introduces an alternative approach for thinking about brains. Building on new research on visual perception, he shows why common ideas about brain networks can’t be right and uncovers the factors that determine our subjective experience. The resulting insights offer a deeper understanding of what it means to be human.

Why the red? If you don't like the book, move on. Hate something?

In my best zombie voice, "MOR BRAINS"!

Lol, thanks GD. Another great find.


Added to my kindle fire. Thanks for the post!


I don't do it but a fair number of people automatically red any free kindle book postings for two reasons: (1) there is already a dedicated thread for posting all free kindle books and (2) as a freebie it technically belongs in the Free Stuff forum, not Hot Deals.

I personally would love to see the dedicated thread used more and less spamming of new topics for each free Kindle book.

i wouldnt have found this deal if not for its own topic thread. how is the dedicated thread helping me in that sense? you one of those square folks that enforce rules even there is no law for it?

I'll have to think about it
