Join Lynne Malcolm from the popular ABC Radio National program and podcast as she launches he new book, All in the Mind, discussing inspiring and transformational stories from the forefront of brain science.
Understanding the human mind remains one of the most alluring challenges we face. Now pioneering investigations and technologies are enabling science to gain new insights into the complexity of the brain, its ability to change and adapt, and the connections between its biology and the mind, individual experience and behaviour.
In her new book, Lynne Malcolm multi-award winning journalist and host of ABC podcast “All in the Mind” draws on her research as well as interviews with neuroscientists, psychiatrists, psychologists and the people they help to discover how this new knowledge is not only changing the way we understand the brain but is also changing lives.
Alongside stories about consciousness and perception, sleep, dreaming and hallucinations; of memory, identity, creativity and the mind-body connection; and of mental illness and recovery, are powerful personal tales of healing and transformation that offer hope to millions.
Illuminating and inspiring, All In the Mind will change the way you think about the brain, the mind and our inherent potential.
Lynne will be in conversation with Dr Norman Swan, producer and presenter of “Health Report” on ABC Radio National.
