Every time we have an experience, feel an emotion, or take an action our brains must respond and change the way they work. Modern neuroscience can now tell us much about what happens in our brains from the moment we are conceived throughout our lives, both when we are healthy and when we succumb to brain disorders. Written by a psychiatrist who spent three decades studying human behavior and brain function, this book is an accessible introduction to how our brains work, how experience changes our brains, and how medications and psychotherapy affect the cells and connections in our brains.
