Мозг. Ваша личная история

Дэвид Иглмен explores how the brain shapes who we are. He asks how we move, make choices, and connect with others. He also asks what brain research might bring in the future. This science book is for general readers. It looks at the brain and our sense of self.

Иглмен is an American neuroscientist, a scientist who studies the brain. He created and hosted the TV series «Мозг». He looks at how we try to predict events. These range from earthquakes and disease outbreaks to markets and sports. He asks how we can tell useful signals from data noise.

He also explores how evolution gave the brain its power to adapt. This trait is called plasticity. It has helped humans cope with change for millions of years. Could it one day free us from our biological limits? Иглмен leaves this as an open question about our future. He asks about a possible move toward transhumanism: going beyond those limits.
