From University of Washington professor Chantel Prat comes The Neuroscience of You, a rollicking adventure into the human brain that reveals the surprising truth about neuroscience, shifting our focus from whats average to an understanding of how every brain is different, exactly why our quirks are important, and what this means for each of us.With style and wit, Chantel Prat takes us on a tour of the meaningful ways that our brains are dissimilar from one another. Using realworld examples, along with takethemyourself tests and quizzes, she shows you how to identify the strengths and weakness of your own brain, while learning what might be going on in the brains of those who are unlike you. With sections like Focus, Navigate, and Connect, The Neuroscience of You helps us see how brains that are engineered differently ultimately take diverse paths when it comes time to prioritize information, use what theyve learned from experience, relate to other people, and so much more.While other scientists focus on how the brain works on average, Prat argues that our obsession with commonalities has slowed our progress toward understanding the very things that make each of us unique and interesting. Her fieldleading research, employing cuttingedge technology, reveals the truth: Complicated as it may be, no two brains are alike. And individual differences in brain functioning are as pervasive as they are fundamental to defining what normal looks like. Adages such as, Im not wired that way intuitively point to the fact that the brains were piloting, educating, and parenting are wonderfully distinct, explaining a whole host of phenomena, from how easily a person might learn a second language in adulthood to whether someone feels curious or threatened when faced with new information. This book invites the reader to understand themselves and others by zooming in so close that we all look gray and squishy.
