Details

Brings together neurological research and Persian verse to transport us from the familiar to the extraordinary on a kaleidoscopic journey into the wonders of the human brain. By interweaving these stories with verse from Farid Al-Din Attar's mystical 12th century poem The Conference of the Birds, they ask us to re-examine what we think we know about ourselves and the experiences of people around us.
