New Discoveries About How Our Brains Make Us Who We Are.
'States Of Mind' is a wonderfully accessible introduction to the most important recent findings about how our health, behaviour, feelings and identities are influenced by what goes on inside our brains. Eight pioneering researchers offer a new way of understanding ourselves.
This fascinating book covers the various sources of depression and how it can be treated; the effects of stress on our brains and general health; how memory works and the phenomenon of false memory; why we dream and the role dreams play in our lives; how genes and life experience combine to shape our personalities and temperaments; and more.
