Note = The great neuroscience pioneer researcher Michael Gazzaniga has written many wonderful books about brain science. Three of Gazzaniga's consequential books, which have influenced neuroscientists and professionals around the world, and a memoir and a tribute book, are arranged alphabetically and all five are linked below. The five books should be read and understood throughout the Humanist Galaxy of freethinking secular humanists.

    note = "Gazzaniga's brain research during the past 60 years and his collaboration with other innovative brain scientists has provided him with solid brain knowledge for discussing the history of scientific thinking about the brain and the mind. Also his wide experimental background has given him the big-picture view of what science has revealed about human consciousness." (Paraphrased slightly by webmaster from publisher's blurb)

    note = "By understanding how consciousness emanates from an organization of identifiable brain parts and mental functions, you will be able to better understand the meaning of your own natural willpower and habitual behavior patterns from a secular humanistic value system. Also, you will be able to better anticipate what is likely to happen regarding future developments in brain science and the many disruptive aspects of the rapid advances in artificial intelligence." (Paraphrased slightly by webmaster from publisher's blurb)
