    How the Brain Thinks

    I finished my thesis on the psychology behind Judgment and Decision Making in 1994, and then I set out to figure out how the brain thinks. After 20 years and many epiphanies, I developed an simple acronym for brain function called FACE MaP (stands for frontal cortex, attention, consciousness, emotion, memory and perception) that we can all use.

    I have written about this in How the Brain Thinks. In it I discuss each of these features and show how they work together to produce thinking and human behaviour.
