Tales from Both Sides of the Brain: A Life in Neuroscience,New
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Michael S. Gazzaniga, one of the most important neuroscientists of the twentieth century, gives us an exciting behindthescenes look at his seminal work on that unlikely couple, the right and left brain. Foreword by Steven Pinker.In the midtwentieth century, Michael S. Gazzaniga, the father of cognitive neuroscience, was part of a team of pioneering neuroscientists who developed the now foundational splitbrain brain theory: the notion that the right and left hemispheres of the brain can act independently from one another and have different strengths.In Tales from Both Sides of the Brain, Gazzaniga tells the impassioned story of his life in science and his decadeslong journey to understand how the separate spheres of our brains communicate and miscommunicate with their separate agendas. By turns humorous and moving, Tales from Both Sides of the Brain interweaves Gazzanigas scientific achievements with his reflections on the challenges and thrills of working as a scientist. In his engaging and accessible style, he paints a vivid portrait not only of his discovery of splitbrain theory, but also of his comrades in armsthe many patients, friends, and family who have accompanied him on this wild ride of intellectual discovery.
