The Inside Story of the Ever-Changing Brain The brain is not hardwired, David Eagleman contends--it is livewired. With his theory of infotropism, he demonstrates why the fundamental principle of the brain is information maximization: in the same way that plants grow toward light, brains reconfigure to boost data from the outside world. Learn how a child can function with one half of his brain removed, how a blind man can hit a baseball via a sensor on his tongue, how new devices and body plans can enhance our natural capacities, how paralyzed people will soon be able to dance in thought-controlled robotic suits, how we can build next generation devices based on the principles of the brain, and what all this has to do with why we dream at night.
