Publisher's Synopsis
Understanding the human mind remains one of the most alluring challenges we face. Pioneering investigations and technologies are enabling science to gain new insights into the complexity of the brain, its ability to change and adapt, and the connections between its biology and the mind and individual experience and behaviour. Drawing on this research as well as interviews with neuroscientists, psychiatrists, psychologists and the people they help, science journalist Lynne Malcolm takes us on a journey to discover how this knowledge is not only changing the way we understand the brain but also changing lives.
