The Dragons of Eden: Speculations on the Evolution of Human Intelligence by Carl Sagan
3.0
-Fun Facts About Brains
-Why the Genesis Story Was Metaphorically Correct
-Why Sigmund Freud Was Basically Correct
-Why Are We So Mean to Monkeys
-What If the Dino Extinction Supernova Annihilated Its Orbiting Worlds
-Computer Games Are Fun
-In the Future We Can Have Bigger Brains Thanks to C-Sections (eep)
Carl Sagan was quite the philosopher, and his passion for the universe and for public education comes through loud and clear. A skeptic and rationalist with a romantic, fantastic vision - for one so attached to evidence, he sure loved to speculate. I don't know enough about neuroscience or anatomy to say if the science in this still holds up...but his writing certainly does.
