The Mind - A User's Manual

Description:
What is the mind? How can we use it to our best advantage and what happens when things go wrong? Many people consider the workings of the mind to be completely mysterious, and sometimes spiritual.

John Taylor considers it to be amazingly subtle but scientifically comprehensible. In The Mind: A User's Manual he outlines the workings of the mind, the nature of consciousness, what can go wrong and how we manipulate our minds. Anyone reading this book will gain a greater understanding of their own mind, as well as an insight into how to look after it.
