Your Brain Is a Time Machine

In Your Brain Is a Time Machine, neuroscientist Dean Buonomano explores how the brain perceives and constructs our experience of time, drawing on insights from biology, physics, and philosophy. He examines how our brain's ability to predict and simulate past and future events is vital to human evolution and daily life, raising profound questions about consciousness, free will, and the nature of time. Through a multidisciplinary approach, the book reveals the intricate relationship between our brains and the concept of time, suggesting that our minds fundamentally create our sense of chronological flow.
