Brain Books Group Discusses A Mind of Its Own

The Brain Books Discussion Group will examine Cordelia Fine?s A Mind of Its Own on Tuesday, July 26, from 1:30 ? 3:00 p.m. at the Ashland Branch Library, 410 Siskiyou Boulevard.

 

Our brains are the trusted advisers we should never trust. This "distorting prism" of self knowledge is what Cordelia Fine, a psychologist at the Australian National University, calls our "vain brain." Ms. Fine documents the lengths to which a human brain will go to bias perceptions in the perceiver?s favor. This group meets the fourth Tuesday of each month to discuss a book relating to the brain. The August book selection is The Moral Landscape by Sam Harris. All are welcome to join in the conversation. 

 

For more information, please call the Ashland Branch Library at 541-774-6996.
