This book is a collection of probes into the moment-by-moment works of the brain. It's not a textbookmore of a buffet, really. Each hack is one probe into the operation of the brain, one small demonstration. By seeing how the brain responds, we pick up traces of the structures present and the design decision made, learning a little bit more about how the brain is put together. |
