The Brain – Our 3-pound Universe

“Education is discovering the brain and that’s about the best news there could be… Anyone who does not have a thorough, holistic grasp of the brain’s architecture, purposes, and main ways of operating is as far behind the times as an automobile designer without a full understanding of engines.”
– Leslie Hart, “Human Brain, Human Learning”
