I like it because the content is easy to understand and covers both basics and depth. I borrowed it from the library and plan to purchase it.
This is a must-read book if you want to learn about the functions of the brain. You can gain detailed insights into the interrelationship between the environment and brain development. If you wish to learn more about the hormones involved in the brain, it would be beneficial to consult other books.
Dik Swap: The brain that creates the world, the world that creates the brain
The Creative Brain Shapes Us and the World. Brains endowed with talent create art, and amazing works of art and moving music, in turn, heal us. Conversely, stressful situations such as poverty, discrimination, and violence sicken the brain, and a diseased brain can return as social problems. The world we live in is a creation of the brain, and our brains change as they communicate with the world. Diek Schwab, a world-renowned neuroscientist from the Netherlands, states, "We are our creative brains." *The Brain That Creates the World, The World That Creates the Brain* emphasizes that creativity is an essential characteristic of our brains and demonstrates how the brain and the environment influence each other. Possessing a rich background in arts and culture, the author covers a wide range of fields—including the relationship between artists' creativity and psychiatric illnesses, various anecdotes regarding the healing effects of art and music, as well as controversial philosophical and social issues such as the relationship between homosexuality and the brain, free will, and the permissibility of euthanasia—to gain insight into humanity and society through the keyword "brain creativity." What kind of worlds has our brains created, and what kind of worlds should we create? The story of the "creative brain" that created the world we live in unfolds excitingly with 172 illustrations and 153 quotes.
