There are sections of neurological jargon and several heavily written sections that must be read carefully. While the average reader might not fully get the elements of the neurological side, the book explains well why and how these affect us, providing a good enough source for its arguments in most cases.

Interesting highlights of the links between neurology and philosophy, and developmental journey from the enlightenment period to the modern day

The writing is very dense. And sometimes not very clear.

Coming back to this book because it's annoying me. The whole Descartes error thing - yes, we know that tangible brain injuries can produced different mental states. But what is more interesting is the bidirectionality - how "subjective" emotions are actually measurable by bio markers. I'll come back to, I'm just aversive to anytning with too many anecdotes,
