THE NEW EXECUTIVE BRAIN: Frontal Lobes in a Complex Brain

Elkhonon Goldberg

In The New Executive Brain, Goldberg paints a sweeping panorama of cutting-edge thinking in cognitive neuroscience and neuropsychology, ranging far beyond the frontal lobes. Drawing on the latest discoveries, developing complex scientific ideas and relating them to real life through fascinating case studies and anecdotes, Goldberg explores how the brain engages in decision-making; deals with novelty and ambiguity; and addresses moral choices. He offers a totally new understanding of how the two hemispheres interact. Goldberg’s insights are refreshing challenges to both cognitive neuroscience and neuropsychological entrenched assumptions. With lucid prose and bold ideas, The New Executive Brain a provocative and creative exploration of the brain.
