Human

For our September chapter meeting, we are discussing two books -- the second half of one and the first half of another. The first one is a quick entertaining read so we thought we would accelerate a bit and launch into the second as well.

We are discussing the second half of the book Soul Made Flesh: The Discovery of the Brain -- and How it Changed the World by Carl Zimmer.

We are also discussing the first half (parts I and II, chapters 1 to 5) of Human: The Science Behind What Makes Your Brain Unique by Michael S. Gazzaniga.
