The Enchanted Loom reviews Gerald Huther's book, The Compassionate BrainMark Brady
The brains in all living creatures develop. They move through the world, have experiences, learn things and grow neural network connections and capacities. Once human beings find their survival needs assured, they begin to ascend a developmental spiral much like the one identified decades ago by Abraham Maslow. At some point, at the upper levels of that spiral, the human brain begins to develop great compassion for the other beings we share planet earth with. Huther's book describes in great detail how that happens from a neuroscientific perspective.
The Enchanted Loom reviews Robert Scaer's book, The Trauma SpectrumMark Brady
"Recovering neurologist" Robert Scaer has devoted his life to studying his own and other people's brains. As a result he is not only intimately familiar with the brain's structure and function, but more specifically, it's special vulnerabilities. He does a masterful job of identifying and detailing many of them, a great number of which many of us will recognize with an "Aha" recognition!
The Enchanted Loom reviews Mark Wolynn's book, It Didn't Start With YouMark Brady
Much of what shapes our early lives has been passed down to us from our ancestors, often extending three generations and more. Not only by our genetic heritage, but by our psychological, physical and spiritual ancestry. In this book, Wolynn does an exceptional job of investigating it all.
The human brain has evolved over time to have three parts - the brain stem, paleomammalian brain, and human brain. As humans migrated to new environments, our brains and heads grew larger to help us adapt. The shift to walking on two legs instead of four allowed energy to be redirected to developing a more complex brain capable of symbolic thought. Key human abilities like theory of mind and dual representation enabled skills like understanding others' perspectives and representing concepts in multiple ways. Our brains continue evolving today.
