A guide to the strange and often illogical world of neural function, The Accidental Mind
shows how the brain is not an optimized, general-purpose
problem-solving machine, but rather a weird agglomeration of ad-hoc
solutions that have been piled on through millions of years of
evolutionary history. Moreover, Linden tells us how the constraints of
evolved brain design have ultimately led to almost every transcendent
human foible: our long childhoods, our extensive memory capacity, our
search for love and long-term relationships, our need to create
compelling narrative, and, ultimately, the universal cultural impulse to
create both religious and scientific explanations.
