Description: "Based on Richard L. Gregory's classic Oxford Companion to the Mind, with the addition of new material based on recent technology, this Guide systematically unravels the mysteries of the mind. From the hardware of the mind, the biological basis of behaviour, through consciousness, learning, and mental disorders, to practical examples of minds in action (such as driving a car), it explores in fascinating and authoritative detail the most fundamental questions about our mental world."--Jacket.
