In the same slot, presented by Lynn Malcolm.
I'm heading off to present Life Matters for a Change for podcast fans.
Join me over there.
Lots of crossover themes with all in the mind you'll be pleased to hear.
And all podcasts too.
It's been a real delight to start this show on ABC Radio National back in two thousand and two.
Not the least because I got to interview folk like today's guest.
Acclaimed neuroscientist Professor Villinor Ramachandran from the University of California, San Diego.
Joined me on the show back in two thousand and five.
Richard Dawkins
has described him as a
Latter day Marco Polo journeying the silk road of science to strange and exotic cafes of the mind.
And so I started by asking Ramachandran if that's what doing brain research feels like at the turn of the twenty first century.
But look, I've been interested to read uh one of your compatriots, neuroscientist Stephen Rose's uh new book called The Twenty First Century Brain and and in Yes,
Too busy.
Look, he charts what is really the extraordinary momentum that the brain sciences have gathered over the last twenty years.
But look, he's worried too, because he he has a sense that neuroscience is trying to create a theory of everything that it simply isn't qualified to offer.
You know, he's worried about reductionist explanations of human nature.
Do you share his concern?
We're expecting to see a new book from you down the track in Australia called The Artful Brain.
