The Three-Pound Universe Inside Your Skull
What if everything you thought you knew about your brain was wrong? Not slightly off, but fundamentally backwards. That lump of tissue between your ears-wrinkled like a walnut, with the consistency of soft butter-has been wildly misunderstood for centuries. We've been told it's a thinking machine, divided into rational and emotional parts, passively receiving information from the world. None of this is true. Your brain is actually a prediction engine, a body-budget manager, and a reality constructor all rolled into one. It doesn't react to the world-it creates your experience of it before you're even aware anything is happening. This revelation changes everything we thought we knew about human nature, free will, and what it means to be alive.
