Críticas
"Gets us a lot closer to the problem of how the brain records experience."--The Los Angeles Times
"Crisp prose. . . . a cross between Hunter S. Thompson and E.O. Wilson or Stephen Jay Gould."--Providence Journal "A fascinating book."--Seattle Times "[A] compelling ride. Look for it. Remember it."--The Oregonian"A fascinating portrait of one brilliant, eccentric scientist and an insight into some of the groundbreaking science that seeks to explain memory."--San Francisco Book Review "A fun read about some fascinating neuroscience, and, even more importantly, provides a rare look into how science is really done." --Leonard Mlodinow, author of The Drunkard's Walk "This is an engrossing story of science and the brilliant, flawed people who make it."-- Publishers Weekly "A stirring account of how important scientific research gets done."-- Kirkus "Engrossing . . . a book about the truth, and the endless human struggle to find it."--Jonah Lehrer, author of How We Decide "Thrilling . . . a story you won't forget." --David Eagleman, author of Sum
Reseña del editor
A riveting narrative account of a brilliant, rebel scientist and his notorious lab as they unlock the mystery of memory.
For decades Gary Lynch sought to uncover what physically happens in the brain when we form a memory. Luckily award-winning journalist Terry McDermott was with Lynch in his lab as his staff worked tirelessly to achieve this groundbreaking scientific discovery. Here with the verve of a novelist, McDermott introduces the cutting-edge science and wild cast of characters that enabled Lynch to reveal the inner workings of the memory machine. He then explains some practical applications of these discoveries: drugs that could possibly cure a wide range of neurological conditions, including ADHD. He also shows where Lynch’s sights are now set: on discovering the larger architectural of memory formation.
