Book Review 1 The book review is about the book titled “Brainwashed: the seductive appeal of mindless neuroscience”. The book was published a couple of years ago in 2013 in New York by Sally Satel and Scott O. Lilienfeld. I chose to write a review on this book because a couple of years ago when I started school at Portland State‚ I had joined a book club through the neuroscience club at PSU‚ where they chose this book for a term.

embarrassment‚ and why we feel them when we do. Behavioral Psychologists often work on solutions (particularly medicine) for some of these less desirable emotions.

Sacks’s books‚ I can see that his knowledge in neuroscience is very huge because I have looked at two amazing books of his books The Mind’s Eye and The Island of the Colorblind. His books are rich of sources of neuroscience. I read the first half of The Island of the Colorblind which has a scientific demonstration of achromatopsia‚ also known as color agnosia‚ from a neuroscience and clinical perspective.

Where I was introduced to the applications of nonlinear dynamics with neuroscience. Such as ‘nonlinear synaptic current and neural coupling’‚ ‘bifurcation in population wide oscillations’ and ‘nonlinear dynamics of epilepsy’. Then I started to read articles in neuroscience including ‘Theory and simulation in neuroscience’. And I understood the importance

Phineas Gage Paper PSY/360 May 19‚ 2014 Evi Pover Phineas Gage Paper The layout of the brain is more complex than what can see by the human eye.

I choose the neuroscience perspective because it focuses on the facts and can be proven through a series of tests. Neuroscience is the study of the nervous systems. It includes the operation of the human brain‚ spinal cord and other biological functions. Some examples are chemical imbalance and brain circuitry. Neuroscience also looks
