About this listen
The modern world throws a lot at us - relationships, careers, social media, the list goes on. It can often feel like more than our brains can handle.
In The Evolving Brain, evolutionary neuroscientist Paul Goldsmith reveals the reason why we feel this way - our brains are fundamentally no different to those of the very first humans. They evolved to help us survive our environment of millions of years ago, and since then the world around us has changed faster than our brains could ever hope to. Many of the issues we face in our daily lives stem from this mismatch - we are using an ancient tool to navigate our complex modern lives.
Using the latest neuroscience and case studies from Paul's neurology practice, The Evolving Brain will give readers a greater understanding of how and why our brain functions as it does, and provide actionable insights into how we can optimise the use of our ancient brain to live happier and healthier lives in the modern world.
