A review by bigcitydreamer
The Battle for Your Brain: Defending the Right to Think Freely in the Age of Neurotechnology by Nita Farahany

adventurous challenging informative reflective medium-paced

4.0

I deliberated mentally while reading the book about how I would review this. On the one hand, a really useful conversation starter / thought provoker which may simplify complex ideas on neurotechnology for the layperson. On the other hand, I found myself with eyes glazing over in her more philosophical and technical bits (despite what I observed as a lack of medical consideration for things like

the rights of all people to access drugs like Adderall, in hypothetical

). I found myself seeking out podcast episodes where the author was a guest, though, and look forward to discussing with my book club. So overall, a great read!
