Brainwashed

In Brainwashed, psychiatrist Sally Satel and psychologist Scott O. Lilienfeld explore the overestimation of MRI technology and neuroscience in understanding human behavior. They argue that while brain scans hold immense potential, their misapplication has led to serious consequences, including wrongful imprisonments and hindered recovery for addicts. This thought-provoking work serves as a critical examination of how overreliance on brain science can undermine concepts of free will and responsibility.
