Where do brains come from? How are they structured (and why does it matter)? How does your brain work in tandem with others to create everything you experience?

Full of surprises and equipped with the latest insights from her field, Lisa Feldman Barrett is here to do for neuroscience what Carlo Rovelli has done for theoretical physics and Neil deGrasse Tyson for cosmology.

Sharing mind-expanding lessons from the front lines of research, Dr Feldman Barrett will demystify the brain with wit and humor, sharing valuable insights into human nature while tackling some of the popular myths and misunderstandings that we’ve been taught—from the "lizard brain" to the battle between thoughts and emotions, and the alleged conflict between nature and nurture to determine your behavior.
