Fictions or Realities ?

The human brain is an extraordinary and extremely complex instrument. Discovering its secret pathways and detailed mechanisms is as great an undertaking as understanding the cosmos or the structure of matter. The brain is the origin of our thoughts, our emotions and our behaviours, it is the basis of our social relationships, our affections as well as our conflicts
