Notes Publisher description for Private life of the brain : emotions, consciousness, and the secret of the self / Susan Greenfield. How does the human brain produce your private world? Critically acclaimed neuroscientist and author Susan Greenfield, who holds the position of Director of the Royal Institution in England, weaves together a thought-provoking examination of childhood experiences, primal emotions, such as fear and euphoria, and the effects drugs have on our personalities to probe the most intriguing mystery facing today's scientists: How does the human brain create consciousness and a unique sense of self? In this absorbing, lyrical exploration, Dr. Greenfield presents a provocative new theory that treats emotions as the building blocks of our consciousness and provides an illuminating glimpse into the human brain that reveals the astonishing essence of who we are.
