Livewired: The Inside Story of the Ever-Changing Brain by David Eagleman

5.0

This is like a "explain it to me like I'm 5" on the brain. I really enjoy the information presented in this way on complex topics like the brain. I couldn't point out the different areas of the brain and tell you what each section is responsible for, but regardless I can say I understand pretty much everything this book presented to me.

My takeaway here is really to not underestimate your brain's ability to adapt, and there really is truth to not being able to train your brain as well as you get older, and that's good in it's own way. I hope this knowledge might allow me to consciously be more open to ideas and learn more easily in the years to come.
