Krátky popis
The extraordinary story of how the human brain evolved... and is
still evolving. We've come a long way.The earliest human had a
brain as small as a child's fist, ours are four times bigger, with
spectacular abilities and potential we are only just beginning to
understand. This is How the Mind Changed, a seven-million-year
journey through our own heads, packed with vivid stories,
groundbreaking science, and thrilling surprises. Discover how
memory has almost nothing to do with the past, meditation rewires
our synapses, magic mushroom use might be responsible for our
intelligence, climate accounts for linguistic diversity, and how
autism teaches us hugely positive lessons about our past and
future.Dr Joseph Jebelli's In Pursuit of Memory was shortlisted for
the Royal Society Science Book Prize and longlisted for the
Wellcome. In this, his eagerly awaited second book, he draws on
deep insights from neuroscience, evolutionary biology, psychology,
and philosophy to guide us through the unexpected changes that
shaped our brains. From genetic accidents and environmental forces
to historical and cultural advances, he explores how our brain's
evolution turned us into Homo sapiens and beyond.A single mutation
is all it takes.
