At the centre of the inside of the human brains mind is the place where one can find the reasons why human beings behave in such peculiar delightful & unpleasant ways. I the author of this book (D. Shrigley BA (Hons)) shall take the reader on a journey around the human brain & along the way I shall point-out various things that are worthy of discussion.

I shall tell how the eyes seeing is sorted-out in the brain & the magical nature of it & I shall warn of all the things that can go wrong in this sorting-out process. After the eye we shall travel to the ear & discuss the world that is heard & how it is heard in the brain & all the awful things that can go wrong; some of them amusing & some not amusing.

Some other questions that might be dealt-with are as follows: Could my brain be removed & replaced with a computer? Why cant I remember my wifes name? I can constantly hear a faint whistling sound; is it the sound of my brain functioning? ...
