Free book (Nook/Kindle) Brains: How They Work
Brains: How They Work and What that Tells Us About Who We Are by Dale Purves (Author)

Quote:
Product Description

For 50 years, the world’s most brilliant neuroscientists have struggled to understand how human brains really work. Today, says Dale Purves, the dominant research agenda may have taken us as far as it can—and neuroscientists may be approaching a paradigm shift.
In this highly personal book, Purves reveals how we got to this point and offers his notion of where neuroscience may be headed next. Purves guides you through a half-century of the most influential ideas in neuroscience and introduces the extraordinary scientists and physicians who created and tested them.
Purves offers a critical assessment of the paths that neuroscience research has taken, their successes and their limitations, and then introduces an alternative approach for thinking about brains. Building on new research on visual perception, he shows why common ideas about brain networks can’t be right and uncovers the factors that determine our subjective experience. The resulting insights offer a deeper understanding of what it means to be human.

Now dropped to free for Kindle. As long as you're not Canadian. Just a slightly slower pricedrop for us, as it turns out.

When I saw the thread title I had to wonder about the subject because it sometimes seems the majority of people don't have a working model (especially if they're in Government).
