Dec 8, 2015 @ 7:30 PM: "The Brain on Trial" by David Eagleman

Join us for coffee, cookies and a discussion of The Brain on Trial by David Eagleman.  Find it on page 167 of Best American Science & Nature Writing – 2012 edited by Dan Ariely.

Read it on-line at http://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2011/07/the-brain-on-trial/308520/

Compare this article with


Maimonides (~1168) A treatise on the Soul
[4.3a]   Should one’s soul be ill … If the body loses its harmony, and moves to one extreme or another, then one moves to reverse the process by moving to the other extreme until the body recovers its harmony …
[4.3b]   the miser must be taught to be a spendthrift
 

Our host facility, HighPointe has been quite generous providing us with coffee, cookies (usually freshly baked) and letting us use their private dining room.
