Mind Wide Open by Steven Johnson
Takes us on a journey to the frontiers of brain science and reveals how we're hardwired to think and feel. Experimenting with the advanced technology, the author discovers that everything we do - from falling in love to forming a sentence - is caused by neurons firing and chemicals swirling around our heads.
