1. The document discusses how scientists have made progress in mapping the human brain through technologies like functional MRI, but that consciousness remains mysterious. 2. It explains that consciousness emerges from distributed processes throughout the brain and that our sense of self and control is an illusion according to science. 3. The document also discusses how exercise and physical activity can boost brain power and growth of new nerve cells, suggesting fitness may offer hope against cognitive decline and issues like Alzheimer's disease.

2. THE NEW MAP OF THE BRAIN

3. TRYING TO MAP THE BRAIN HAS ALWAYS BEEN CATOGRAPHY FOR FOOLS . MOST OF THE OTHER PARTS OF THE BODY REVEAL THER WOEKINGS WHIT LITTLER MORE THAN A GLANCE, THE HEART IS SELF EVIDENTLY A PUNP ; THE LUNGS ARE CLEARLY BELLOWS . BUT THE BRAIN WHIS DOES MORE THAN ANY ORGAN REVEALS LEAST OF ALL . THE 1.4-KG LUMP OF WEINKLED TISSUE -WHIT NO MOVING PARTS , NO JOINTS OR VALVES-NOT ONLY SERVES AS THE MOTHERBOARD FOR ALL THE BODYS OTHER SYSTEM BUT ALSO IS THE SEAT OF YOUR MIND

4. YOU ESXIST, RIGHT? PROVE IT. HOW 100 BILLION JABBERING NEURONS CREATE THE KNOWLEDGE-OR ILLUSION - THAT YOUR HERE

5. THE MISTERY OF CONSCIOUSNESS

6. the brain as a machine Scientis have exorcisiced the ghost from the machine not because They are mechanistic killjoys but because they have amassed evidence That every asoect of consciousness can ve tied to the brain. Using Functional MRI ,k cognitive neuroscientist can almost read peoples Thougs from the blood flow in their brains. They can tell , for instance When ther a picture the person is looking at is of a bottle or a shoe.

8. the illusion of control Another starling conclusion from the science of consciousness is That the intuitive feeling we have that theres an executive “i” that Sits in a control room of our brain , scannin the screens of the senses And pushinf the buttons of the musclesm is an illusion

9. A PIPE ORGAN

10. Consciousness is an emergent property an not a process In and of itself our cognitive capacities memories , dreams , etc…. Reflect distributed processes thoughout the brain . The thousands Conscious moments we have in a given day reflect one of our Networks being “ up for duty” when it finishes. The next one pops Up , and the pipe organ – like device plays its tune all day long

12. the las taboo The topic of consciounsness is much like sex in the victorian age .scientifically. Sex is just another part of biology. But many societies Studying it violates a stern taboo. Once we being to observe Sexuality or consciousness- a lot of the clouds of mystery seem to Drift away. that isnt to say that consciousness doest come whit lots of mysteries Sciense is full of mysteries . The topic of gravity is still mysterious Four centuries after isaac newton . But there is no taboo about trying To undestand it

13. stronger , faster, smarter. Exercise does more than build muscles and help prevent heart Disease. New science shows that it also boosts bran powe –and may Offer hope in the battler against alzheimer’s. HEALTH FOR LIFE

14. The stereotype of the “numb jock” has never sounded right to charles Hillman . A jock himself , he plays hockey four times a week , but When he isnt body – cheking his opponents on the ice , hes giving his Mind a comparable workout in his neuroscience and kinesiolofy lab at The university of illinois.

16. For first time , scientist have coaxed the human brain Into growing new nerve cells – simply by putting subjects on A three– month aerobic– workout regimen The kids whit the fittst body were the ones with the fittest brains Even when factor such as socioeconomic status were taken in to Account. Sports, hillman concluded , might indeed be boosting the Students intelec—and also , as long as he didnt “take a puck to The head,” his own.

18. FOR KIDS , EVEN A FEW GAMES OF KICKBALL CAN BOST THE BRAIN IN WISEPREAD, LONG –LASTING WAYS— WHICH IS WHY SOME TEACHERS ARE LOBBYING GOR MORE TIME IN PE CLASS

19. UNLESS , THAT IS YOUR KID . MOST STUDIES OF EXERCISE AND CONGNITION HAVE FOCUSD ON OLDER PEOPLE FOLKS WHO ARE JUST STARTING TO WORRY THAT THEIR MINDS ARENTWHAT THEY USED TO BE– BUT EFECTSIF PHSYCAL EXERTION ON THE BRAIN ARENT LIMITED TO THAT GROUP AT ALL
