Overview
āA History of the Human Brain is a unique, enlightening, and provocative account of the most significant question we can ask about ourselves.ā āRichard Wrangham, author of The Goodness Paradox
Just 125,000 years ago, humanity was on a path to extinction, until a dramatic shift occurred. We used our mental abilities to navigate new terrain and changing climates. We hunted, foraged, tracked tides, shucked oystersāanything we could do to survive. Before long, our species had pulled itself back from the brink and was on more stable ground. What saved us? The human braināand its evolutionary journey is unlike any other.

In A History of the Human Brain, Bret Stetka takes us on this far-reaching journey, explaining exactly how our most mysterious organ developed.

Clearly and expertly told, this intriguing account is the story of who we are. By examining the history of the brain, we can begin to piece together what it truly means to be human.
