But Charlie suddenly changed, becoming hopelessly forgetful, angry and confused. 

Our human brain is both unique and similar to that of other species. The only way we can trace its evolution is by comparing it to the brains of animals alive today.

What if embracing your differences could unlock your true potential? For years, I believed I was "too much," too intense, too different, too unpredictable. Diagnosed with autism and ADHD when I turned forty, I spent decades masking who I truly was, trying to fit into a world not designed for minds like mine. When I finally embraced my neurodivergence, everything changed. I didn’t just survive, I thrived. Turning my perceived limitations into my greatest strengths. NeuroEdge exists to help you do the same.

The brain is our most vital and complex organ. It controls and coordinates our actions, thoughts and interactions with the world around us. It is the source of personality, of our sense of self, and it shapes every aspect of our human experience. Yet most of us know precious little about how our brains actually work, or what we can do to optimise their performance. Combining the latest scientific research with storytelling and advice, Supercharge Your Brain reveals everything you need to know about how your brain functions, and what you can do to keep it in peak condition.

It helps you cope with difficult emotions and makes your life easier. This DBT manual will rejuvenate your life by making you happier and less prone to anxiety and will help you take charge of your neurodiversity!

There is a particular kind of fear that arrives when the brain is involved. People can face heart disease, lung disease, kidney disease, and even cancer with a grim determination, but when the doctor begins to speak about the brain, something changes in the room. The atmosphere tightens. The future feels less predictable. The questions become more personal, more intimate, and often more frightening, because the brain is not only an organ that keeps us alive. It is the place where our sense of self seems to live.

How does a neural network become a brain? While neurobiologists investigate how nature accomplishes this feat, computer scientists interested in AI strive to achieve this through technology. The Self-Assembling Brain tells the stories of both fields, exploring the historical and modern approaches taken by the scientists pursuing answers to the quandary: What information is necessary to make an intelligent neural network? As Peter Robin Hiesinger argues, "the information problem" underlies both fields.
