Longlisted for the PEN/E.O. Wilson Literary Science Writing Award
A leading neuroscientist offers a history of the evolution of the brain
from unicellular organisms to the complexity of animals and human
beings today
Renowned neuroscientist Joseph LeDoux
digs into the natural history of life on earth to provide a new
perspective on the similarities between us and our ancestors in deep
time. This page-turning survey of the whole of terrestrial evolution
sheds new light on how nervous systems evolved in animals, how the brain
developed, and what it means to be human.
In The Deep History of Ourselves,
LeDoux argues that the key to understanding human behavior lies in
viewing evolution through the prism of the first living organisms. By
tracking the chain of the evolutionary timeline he shows how even the
earliest single-cell organisms had to solve the same problems we and our
cells have to solve each day. Along the way, LeDoux explores our place
in nature, how the evolution of nervous systems enhanced the ability of
organisms to survive and thrive, and how the emergence of what we humans
understand as consciousness made our greatest and most horrendous
achievements as a species possible.
