Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Why are we who we are-and where are we headed In The Rise and Fall of the Human Mind, neurologist and Yale-affiliated professor Martin Jan Stransky, M.D. delivers a sweeping, provocative, and profoundly readable journey into the past, present, and uncertain future of our greatest organ: the human brain.From the Big Bang to artificial intelligence, from tribal bonding to digital addiction, Dr. Stransky draws on cutting-edge neuroscience, evolutionary biology, genetics, psychology, and even quantum theory to explain the staggering ascent of the human mind-and the emerging forces that now threaten to unravel it.In this compelling and richly illustrated work, you'll explore: - The astonishing 14-billion-year journey from atoms to neurons- How our brains evolved to prioritize survival, emotion, and reward- Why we are irrational thinkers with hidden biases-and how we decide- How memory is created, distorted, and manipulated- The impact of language, culture, and group identity on cognition- How technology is reshaping attention, parenting, education, and selfhood- The looming neurological and societal risks of social media, AI, and digitized lifeDr. Stransky doesn't just explain how the mind works-he dares to ask if it's now beginning to fail. With clarity, wit, and urgency, The Rise and Fall of the Human Mind invites readers to see themselves-and our civilization-in a radical new light.Essential reading for anyone curious about the human condition, this book blends hard science with philosophical insight to deliver a message that is both hopeful and deeply alarming.
