Chapter
2 – Peering beneath the skull: how the brain works
Chapter
2 provides an overview of the different brain regions and
processes that determine human behaviour and presents how
the findings of quantum theory have influenced our vision
of the human brain and the way in which it acts to control
and coordinate our behaviour. Chapter 2 also presents evidence
that suggests that universal principles apparent in the Perennial
Philosophy and the behaviour of sub-atomic particles are also
manifest in the processes that give rise to human behaviour.
This offers clues about how to enhance the performance of
our brains.
