| Annotation |
Through prose, poetry, historical archives, and art, Brain Meets World takes readers on a hero’s journey of ideas. Across seven chapters (160 pages), articles authored by leading behavioral scientists and science writers provide glimpses into the electric, surprising, painful, and peculiar paths that our ideas take—and take us on. We begin with how, where, and why inspiration happens to the obstacles we face and how we adapt. Then, we navigate the peaks and pains of discovery and the challenges of mastering the knowledge we acquire. From there, we reflect on where we’ve been and what we’ve learned. Upon our return, we hope we’re wiser than before. But there’s no guarantee. The backdrop for the journey is the world of behavioral science, which offers a one-of-a-kind stage to explore the odysseys of our mind. Here, the author, setting, and main character of our ideas is the same—ourselves. |
