We Are Our Brains

From the Womb to Alzheimer's
Taking us through every stage in our lives, from the womb to falling in love to old age, the author shows that we don't just have brains: we are our brains.

Everything we think, do and refrain from doing is determined by our brain. From religion to sexuality, it shapes our potential, our desires and our characters. Taking us through every stage in our lives, from the womb to falling in love to old age, Dick Swaab shows that we don't just have brains: we are our brains.
