We have known for over a thousand years that the brain underlies behavioral expression, but effective scientific study of the brain is only very recent. Two things converge in this book: a great respect for neuroscience and its many variations, and a sense of investigation and inquiry demythologized. Think of it as foraging for coherence.
Jay Schulkin is Research Professor in the Department of Neuroscience at Georgetown University, USA, where his work on brain systems that underlie behavioral adaptation is informed by both neuroscience and philosophical perspectives.
