The brain is wider than the sky: Why simple solutions don't work in a complex world - Bryan Appleyard
The brain is wider than the sky: Why simple solutions don't work in a complex world - Bryan Appleyard
Simplicity has become a brand and a cult. People want simple lives and simple solutions. From telephone call trees that simplify us into a series of 'options' to social networks that reduce us to our purchases and preferences, we are deluged with propaganda urging us to abandon our irreducibly complex selves.
At the same time, scientists tell us we are 'simply' the products of evolution, nothing more than our genes. Brain scanners have inspired neuroscientists to claim they are close to cracking the problem of the human mind. Humans are being simplified out of existence.
It is time, says Bryan Appleyard, to resist.

This is a previously loved book - there is no escaping the fact it has been read by someone else and it will show some signs of wear and previous use. Overall we expect it to be in very good condition, but if you are not entirely satisfied please get in touch with us.
