BEYNİN BÜYÜLEYİCİ DÜNYASINI KEŞFEDECEĞİNİZ 200 TEMEL KAVRAM Beyin, tüm evrendeki en karmaşık yapı olarak kabul edilir. Peki bu karmaşık ve hâlâ keşfedilmeyi bekleyen organa dair insanlık neler biliyor? Nasıl düşünüyor, kokluyor, konuşuyor, öğreniyor, hareket ediyoruz? Elinizdeki son derece modern ve kapsamlı kitap bize insan beyninin neden bu kadar zeki olduğunu, nefes alma, uyuma ve görmeden tutun kimlik, hayal gücü, zevk ve acıya kadar her şeyi nasıl kontrol ettiğini ve bilgisayarlarla ya da genetik alanındaki son keşiflerle bir araya geldiğinde neler olacağını açıklıyor. Kitapta beynin kökeni ve anatomisi, vücut kontrolü, ruh hâli ve duygular, algı, bilinç, bellek ve öğrenme, kişilik, zekâ ve diğer üst işlevler, dil, garip zihin durumları, bozukluklar, hastalıklar ve tedaviler, son olarak da beynin geleceği inceleniyor. Ödüllü bilim yazarı Rita Carter ayrıca hafıza kaybı, çoklu kişilik, psikopati, rüya görme, halüsinasyon, bağımlılık, otizm, disleksi, şizofreni, bunama ve başka pek çok zihin durumunu aydınlatıyor.

merak ettiğim konularda beni yormadan bilgiler veren kitapları seviyorum.

Great book to read to get a quick snapshot of the brain, it's parts, and functions. Truly reminded me how complex, amazing, and wonderful the brain is.

An excellent introductory technical book about the brain. It goes into detail about the brain and cell structures, save for the process of action potential and chemical makeup of the neuron.

The book is very outdated in regards to its content on Autism.
The diagnosis of Asperger's has roots in white supremacy and ableism and was removed from the DSM - 5 in 2013. The diagnosis is now encompassed by the broader term Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), I'm not sure when this book was published so maybe it was before that but it is still important to note if you are considering reading the book or if you have read the book already and need to unlearn some of the misinformation. Additionally many autistic people have shared that the functioning labels of "high functioning" and "low functioning" are harmful for various reasons (I'd recommend doing your own research to listen to their voices instead of mine) and the labels have now been replaced with the terms "lower support needs" and "higher support needs"
Overall it was a great read, very light and easy to understand, even in something as complex as the human brain but I definitely would take the information with a heavy grain of salt as there is probably more misinformation in subjects I know less about too.
