•16 feature stories on the brain
• Popular science commissioned by Wellcome
Ever wondered how Scandinavians cope with 24-hour darkness, why we feel pain, or whether smartphones really make children stupid? Have you heard about the US military’s research into supercharging minds?
You need some Brainology. Originally written for Wellcome, the global health charity, Brainology’s stories explore the mysteries of the human mind. They follow maverick doctors as they piece together the puzzle of our emotions, nerves and behaviour.
Aimed at the general reader, each chapter is written by a top science journalist. Tuck into some seriously thrilling science.
