Social: Why Our Brains Are Wired to Connect by Matthew D. Lieberman
5.0
The book is ambitious. It covers an immense amount of ground. Way to many interesting ideas than I feel like listing or summarizing at present.
The author Mathew Lieberman has a TEDX talk that essentially summarizes the book. Google:The Social Brain And Its Superpowers : Matthew Lieberman, Ph.D. at TEDxStLouis.
WARNING: the talk is actually much less exciting than the book. Lieberman is a fantastic, engaging and quite persuasive writer, and the book is extremely well crafted. There were more than a few times that I had to put the book aside and process the flood of insights and ideas I was having as a result of reading Lieberman's words.
This is a really good book. I'm definitely going to read it again and give it a closer study next time around. I think there's something for just about everyone in it.
