How does the biological tissue of which the brain is composed give rise to activities which our culture refers to as the mind? How can three pounds of electric sponge provide for the experience of awe and enchantment, of memory, priority and duty. This provocative volume explains what the science has to say about planning and action, language, attention, emotions and vision.
