Brain Bugs: How The Brain's Flaws Shape Our Lives (2011) - Plot & Excerpts
I picked up this one thinking "why am I reading yet another popularization book on this subject?" Alas, not all books are the same, even if the material on this book overlaps with several others on the subject, and I can't identify any new ideas, this is one of the most entertaining and well put books on the subject I've read (or listen to), eloquent and illustrative, I'd recommend it to everyone as an introductory book on the subject. It quotes Pinker, quotes Kahneman (thinking fat and slow), but it is more entertaining than the latter.A very good read Very informative and entertaining too. Good explanations for some of the mystery of our memories and how they are formed, linked, and stored in the brain. Interesting read...wanted it to keep going! Got to the end and my brain was still engaged... But lets see, do i remember anything? Well, mostly what i have remembered are the things I already have many links or association with in my brain . Highly recommend it to anyone curious about the brain and how it works.
