Meet Yourself. How Genes, Microbes, and Neurons Make Us Who We Are
«Did I really say that?» «And why did I get involved in this?» «How did it even come to my mind?»
Each of us has wondered why we act in one way or another — sometimes with delight, more often —...
with annoyance. For a long time, no one knew the answer to these questions, but now science is ready to tell us why we love certain dishes and can't stand others, how we choose friends and partners, and why we experience certain feelings.
Bill Sullivan is a specialist in genetics and microbiology, and also an avid fan of pop culture. With scientific precision, humor, and references to iconic films and series, he discusses the things that make us ourselves: genes, microbes, and neurons, and how the small and unnoticed govern us.
