Description
x Why does the brain work the way it does?
Can eating certain foods improve your memory?
Can you activate parts of your brain you don't use?
Can you smile on purpose to make yourself feel happy?
What is free will, and do we really have it?
We explore these important questions and many more to uncover all the secrets of your amazing, mysterious, irreplaceable organ. Your brain is what makes you you, it is the origin of your personality and intelligence. It learns languages, creates memories, and interprets complex patterns. But it is also responsible for your bad decisions and drives addictive behaviors.
In The Super Brain, neuroscientist Dr. Kaya Nordungen describes in fascinating detail how the mind works—what it's made of, from neurons, synapses, and the cerebral cortex, to how it works on a more abstract level—everything from what happens when we fall in love to where we find our sense of self.
Join Dr. Kaya Nordungen on her amazing journey through the many unexplored regions of the complex human brain, and discover why yours truly is extraordinary.
