Synopsis

The Little Book of Big Stuff About the Brain is the users, manual that your brain didn`t come with. What it is, how it works, what it looks like, where it came from it s all here in this light-hearted and easy-to-read little book that will guarantee that you will never think about your own thinking in quite the same way ever again. Whatever role you have in life, every action you undertake, every thought you entertain, every memory you hold, every hang up you possess, every quirk, foible, idiosyncrasy and knack, it s all the result of chemistry and electricity working across a network of squidgy organic matter that you have helped shape throughout your life. So, enjoy this little book about your amazing brain, but remember, as someone once said, If our brains were simple enough to understand them, we would be too simple to understand them . Featuring a new chapter on educational psychology by Alice Moore.
