A fascinating and digestible review of current thinking about the workings (and myriad failings) of the human brain. I was particularly pleased that the author didn't necessarily take one interpretation of the data as gospel, rather presenting a few theories where it made sense to do so. After all, data mean nothing without interpretation.
