- Summary:
- Advances in neuroscience have forced us to rethink some our assumptions about the structure of the mind, and take stock of the true extent to which our cognitive faculties are 'made', not 'born'. This book describes how our discovery of the brain's power to adapt to its environment ('neuroplasticity') has changed the way we think about the structure of the mind.
