The most complex and mysterious object in the universe is seemingly nothing. It is not attractive either. Covered with a matte gray membrane and resembling a twisted mushroom, this object has attracted the attention of scientists, philosophers and artists for centuries with its mysteriousness. The object in question is, of course, the human brain. New developments in the field of technology help us understand how the brain reveals the human mind. Now the brain circuits are extraordinary. We can see the complexity of our body and observe which parts of it spend energy and which produce electricity when we fall in love, lie, or imagine winning the lottery. There is something extraordinary inside the millions of cells of this rubbery mesh: You. Robert Winston takes us deep into the human brain and reveals how our senses, emotions and personality, which determine the course of our lives, are managed from a single point. Winston explores the emotional state as he explains how memories are formed and lost, and how the ever-changing brain is responsible for everything from the tantrums of young children to the depression of teenagers. ; It also reveals the truth behind perceptions, déjà vu and out-of-body experiences. On the one hand, we can learn how to improve our intelligence, what we have but nothing. While we are discovering how we can reveal our skills that we did not realize, how we can give up our old habits, and how we can keep our brains in shape as we age, on the other hand, we are faced with a great paradox. Because it is the only tool that makes it possible for us to understand the human brain. It is again the human brain itself and the extraordinary knowledge that science has discovered that makes each of us unique. It is highly likely that the mechanism will never be fully explained.
