Synopsis

A neighborhood bar, an ordinary night. A man suddenly stabs his friend to death with a knife. He is charged with murder. His lawyer decides to defend him with the amygdala defense, a novel defense that has never been asserted anywhere before. Mental life occurs in three distinct steps: (1) sense, (2) thought, and (3) act. Behind every thought or feeling, there is a molecular reaction in the brain. Behind every molecule in the reaction, there is an enzyme that created that molecule. Behind every enzyme is a gene. If the gene is defective, the enzyme is defective. If the enzyme is defective, so will be the molecule. If the molecule is defective, so is the chemical reaction and the thought reaction it produces. The human brain is the most complicated structure in the universe. Its operation is a mystery. No one knows how decisions are made, including the decision to commit a crime. Can the body commit a crime so quickly that the conscious mind is completely unaware until the action is over? Will the Amygdala Defense be successful? If you’ve ever wondered what mindset would allow an attorney to defend even the most heinous of criminals, THE AMYGDALA DEFENSE is the book for you! It just might convince you that the “war against crime” does not work!
