This book provides the layperson with an interest in psychology an entry point into the workings of the mind. Fine loosely categorises the brain with common adjectives in nine chapters: the vain brain; the emotional brain; the immoral brain; the deluded brain; the pigheaded brain; the secretive brain; the weak-willed brain; the bigoted brain; the vulnerable brain. When Fine focuses on using research to illustrate these common behaviours this book is a thoroughly interesting and informative read.
