The Human Brain. Inside the most complex object in the known universe. New Scientist Essential Guide N7 Edited by Caroline Williams
A super interesting read. My favourite chapters where the one about female and male brains concluding first that there aren't female or male brains but brains with a mixture of female and male characteristics and second that (adult) brains are a product of the lives we live, education, etc. I also liked the chapter about How to treat a sick brain discussing Music, Psychedelics, Ketamine and Brain electrical stimulation. Apart from the hallucinations they produce I had heard about the powers of DMT and Ayahuasca to treat illnesses and to help overcome fears (like fear of death). I think I'd like to read more about the topic.
