Produktinformationen zu „Proust Was a Neuroscientist “
From the author of "The Decisive Moment", this is an illuminating book about how famous artists have anticipated the discoveries of neuroscience. For example, Proust revealed the fallibility of memory; George Eliot understood the brain's malleable nature; and Cezanne worked out the subtleties of vision. 'His clear and vivid writing - incisive and thoughtful, yet sensitive and modest - is a special pleasure.' Oliver Sacks
