I have read all those book and I agree Sapolsky is a genius and he's great at explaining complex stuff making it seem really easy

I love science, but talking about the brain I love the more and I start reading so thanks so much for showing me all these books .

I have read 3/6..
and it all started with Thinking fast and Slow, then Sapiens and then Behave ...

Apart from this I read Nudge, Misbehave and The Enigma of Reason related to this theme

I've already read 3 books in your list: thinking fast and slow, sapiens and why we sleep. Will start reading other books as well. And also I've read 2 other books about brain which I found very interesting: man who mistook his wife for a hat by oliver sacks and phantoms in the brain by VS Ramachandran. I understand it's too old but their experiments and case studies were awesome and I really enjoyed it.

Nice video Gregory! I recently bought "Phantoms in the Brain" from Ramachandran, as an engineer this is a exciting but also very deep field to enter :) Greetings from Germany!

The revelation for me was Phantoms in the Brain

[lindaselwoodchoueiri]

My comment is number 100!😂 excellent book list!!! I love knowing about the brain, to understand stuff ex in psychology - that psychologists do not always know their brain science enough to explain ideas!

[NiteshWebDeveloper]

Sapiens has been recommended by a few. Some say social perspective while some say it decodes being human. It is interesting to know its relevance in the context of brains. Now it is a must read for me along with Behave! There must be some reason why Gregory has so many bookmarks there. :)

[matyaskuchar]

Thank you for all reccomendation. I already have read Sapiens. Will continue with M. Walker, D. Brooks and Mr. Sapolsky .... Great editing btw. Pleasant day to all bookworms & brainmaniacs :)

[luisambriz]

Nice list and thanks for sharing! What about 'We are our brains' by the Dutch professor Dick Swaab? Did it make Brain Academy's Top 10?
