From the Bookshelf of 2015 Reading Challenge [Closed]…

[close] Fascinating reading for a layman--a short, easy read. I highly recommend this book to everyone with a brain (except scientists already familiar with how the brain distorts and deceives). Although the author explains the hows and whys of some fascinating cases of people with strange disorders, most of the book covers how the normal brain works, and you'll be amazed at how much your brain twists perception, memory, conscious thought. Cordelia Fine explains so much, yet you'll be left reeling with the implications. She is quite funny too. [2015 Reading Challenge: A Nonfiction Book]
