Thomas Zoega Ramsoy

How does the human mind work? Why is our brain wired to make us do so many erroneous choices? TZ Ramsøy's path to writing comes through a blend of academic blue-sky research, through clinical neuropsychology, and to applied neuroscience to everyday behaviors. He mixes a blend of true academic transparency and validity with a keen eye for narrative and applicability, all spiced up with parallels from history and society.
