We believe our world is largely logical and predictable, so we make forecasts, calculate the likelihood of earthquakes, epidemics, and economic crises, and try to predict the outcome of stock exchanges and sports matches. In this boundless ocean of data, it's important to recognize the real signal and not be distracted by useless information noise.
David Eagleman, renowned American neuroscientist, bestselling author, and creator and host of the international television series "The Brain," invites readers on a fascinating journey to the origins of their own personality, into the depths of a mysterious organ whose mysteries science has only recently begun to unravel. Who are we? How do we move? How do we make decisions? Why do we need other people? And most importantly, what does the future hold? What discoveries and opportunities does the incredibly powerful brain with which evolution has endowed us promise? It is possible that in the near future, the plasticity of the brain, which for millions of years has allowed humans to adapt to the changing conditions of the surrounding world, will help them free themselves from their biological foundation and make the greatest leap in human history—the transition to the era of transhumanism.
