Big Brain

The Origins and Future of Human Intelligence (MacSci)

Gary Lynch

Explore the fascinating story of a human-like creature called "Boskops" that flourished in South Africa 10,000 years ago. With forebrains 50% larger than ours and estimated IQs to match, they far surpassed our own intelligence. In "Big Brain," prominent neuroscientists compare the Boskop brain to our own and draw startling conclusions about our creativity and intellect. Discover the implications of large brains for cutting-edge fields like genetics, evolution, memory, and intelligence, and explore the future of brain-based robots and neural prosthetics. This accessible and thought-provoking book offers tantalizing insights into our humanity, past, and future.

@ilyasut True, and now many are going back to raw diets 😉 .... Seriously: 2 books I like on this are Big Brain by Lynch and Granger, and Evolving Brains by John Allman. The latter is awesome!!!      fuente
