What I've been reading

After watching Judith Horstman's talk, I bought her book A Day in the life of your brain. It's a fantastic book sketching the "neural representations" of ... well everything that makes "us". I cannot summarize the book but I am slowly trying to assimilate the factual information of what's happening in my brain (and others) as and when they happen. I am not sure how successful I will be at this but since "I know me" (I hope), this is something I would throughly enjoy doing.(Rita Carter's book, for the long haul)

This is my first foray into the nuances of neuroscience, its been very interesting. Why am I trying go insane with reading all the technical details, may be because I couldn't find single reason for not doing so.
