“The Mind and the Brain”

I might write more about this book later. It is a review of modern neurology research over the past 20 years and points to our power to affect our own neurology–and therefore, who we are in a primary way.

One fun thing for me is that the author, Jeffrey Schwartz, has worked with two of my favorite thinkers:

  1. David Chalmers - philosopher at Australian National University (formerly at U of Arizona)
  2. Henry Stapp - American physicist (Berkeley) specializing in quantum mechanics

If he should suddenly write that he also consults with Roger Penrose and Thubten Jinpa I would not be surprised.
