Ungraded assignment for Mon. 2/18: Ramachandran, “The Neurons That Shaped Civilization” (on Moodle)
 

As part of preparing for our discussion of this chapter by Ramachandran on Mon., you should (as always) think of questions about the text that we might discuss. Your assignment is to send me one such question before 6 am on Mon. You should (also as always) direct people to a particular location in the text; that means a page number or comparably specific description of the location.

To get much out of Ramachandran’s chapter, it will be important to think through in detail some of the examples of the functions mirror neurons might serve (and the evidence suggesting they do serve these functions), so please consider questions that point to such examples.
