Understanding the Brain: From Cells to Behavior to Cognition Audiobook (Free)

An study of what makes us human and unique among all creatures-our brains

No listener curious about our ‘small gray cells’ will want to pass up Harvard neuroscientist John E. Dowling’s short introduction to the mind. In this up-to-date revision of his 1998 reserve Creating Mind, Dowling conveys the fact and vitality from the field of neuroscience-examining the improvement we’ve made in focusing on how brains function, and shedding light on discoveries having to do with aging, mental illness, and brain health. The 1st half from the book provides the nuts-and-bolts necessary for an up-to-date understanding of the mind. Within the general business of the brain, early chapters clarify how cells communicate with one another to enable us to experience the world. All of those other reserve touches on higher-level concepts such as for example vision, perception, vocabulary, memory, feelings, and awareness. Lucidly created, this intro elegantly reveals the beauty of the body organ which makes us uniquely human being.
