Your brain is a time machine
Book • 2017
In 'Your Brain Is a Time Machine', Dean Buonomano delves into the intricate relationship between the brain and time, discussing how the brain tells time, creates a sense of time, and enables mental time travel.
He explores concepts like free will, consciousness, and relativity, revealing the brain's role in predicting the future.
The book combines neuroscience, physics, and philosophy to explain why our perception of time is both a biological necessity and an illusion.
