“Know thyself” was written on the wall of the Temple of Apollo in ancient Greek Delphi. Twenty-four centuries later, we are still trying to do this, but with the help of advances in psychology, neuroscience, sociology and other sciences. Sometimes we are pushed to self-knowledge not by philosophical, but by completely everyday questions: how do we make decisions? Why do we suffer from procrastination and love horror films (after all, they are scary)? Why is it so difficult for us to get rid of bad habits and strengthen good ones? Is it true that time moves faster over the years? And why, finally, do we lie so often over small things? In her work, University of Melbourne scientist Jen Martin, armed with data from modern scientific research, provides answers to these and hundreds of other questions. This light and witty book with brilliant illustrations by artist Holly Jolly will help readers learn more about the structure of the world's most complex device - our brain - and better understand themselves.

For whomFor all those who want to understand how to explain our weirdness from a scientific point of view.
