Riassunto

Scientific mysteries are everywhere around you. At the bottom of the deepest oceans. On the frontiers of the known universe. But some of life’s greatest scientific mysteries lie much closer than inside the recesses of the human mind.Every day of your life is spent surrounded by mysteries that involve what, on the surface, appear to be rather ordinary human behaviors.[list][*]What makes you happy?[*]Where did your personality come from?[*]Why do you have trouble controlling certain behaviors?[*]What does your self-esteem do?[*]Why do you behave differently as an adult than you did as an adolescent?[/list]Since the start of recorded history, and probably even before, people have been interested in answering questions about why we behave the way we do. In fact, many fields of human endeavor—such as philosophy, psychology, and even theology—are focused on finding explanations for the nature of human behavior. But it’s only in recent decades, with the emergence of advanced scientific methods and tools, that researchers can finally approach, understand, and solve the mysteries of emotion, thought, and behavior in the same way that oceanographers investigate the ocean depths or astronomers study the stars above our heads.
