Knuckle-headed Butterflies

Knuckle-headed butterflies are visiting, one at a time, the little orange flags set out to mark the heads for the sprinkler system I'm having put in. They must think they are orange flowers full of nectar with which they might make some more butter.

Mindless Neuroscience

Can neuroscience really tell us if John Doe is fated to become a wife-beater? How about his wife Jane, is she really more susceptible to getting Alzheimer's when she gets older? Can these things really be predicted by studying scans of our brains? Not so fast! say Satel & Lilienfeld, authors of Brainwashed: The Seductive Appeal of Mindless Neuroscience, a finalist for the LOS ANGELES TIMES BOOK PRIZE IN SCIENCE and was recently featured on CSPAN's Book TV.

"The narrow focus on the brain's physical processes also assumes that our subjective experiences can be explained away by biology alone. . . . Brainwashed brilliantly illuminates what contemporary neuroscience and brain imaging can and cannot tell us about ourselves." (amazon.com)

It seems we still have far to go as to gleaning such information from brain scans. 40+ reviews & your discounted copy

Marie Osmond at 50+
