Über diesen Titel

Our brains are noisy; certain regions are always grinding away at involuntary activities like daydreaming, worrying about the future, and self-chatter, taking up to forty-seven percent of our waking time. This is mindwandering—and while it can tug your attention away from the present, cognitive neuroscientist Moshe Bar is here to tell you about the method behind this apparent madness.

Mindwandering is the first popular book to explore this multi-faceted phenomenon of your wandering mind and introduces you to the new, exciting research behind it. Bar combines his decades of research to explain the benefits and the possible cost of mindwandering within the broader context of psychology, neuroscience, psychiatry, and philosophy, providing you with practical knowledge that can help you:

  • Develop your sense of self, better relate to others, and make associations that help you understand the world around you
  • Increase your ability to focus by understanding when to wander—and when not to
  • Magnify and enrich your experiences by learning about full immersion
  • Stimulate your creativity by combing through the past and making predictions about the future

This audiobook is definitely worth a try. It is engaging and keeps you interested throughout without being boring or drawn-out at any point. One thing to note is that the book occasionally delves into neuroscientific concepts and findings from brain imaging studies. Therefore, it is important for a non-expert reader (which is the addressed audience of the book) to know the difference between a kind of general idea and scientific facts, with the former being something that is aligned with general personal experience, and the latter being more bound to specific paradigmatic situations. Otherwise, it truly provides good entertainment.

good read!
