I need a book recommendation or, more properly, any source recommendation to know and understand more about the phenomena related to the brain, as far as we know how the brain works. I'm interested in the very structure the brain has and how it leads to what we experience. Due to the way biological processes happen, how the things we define for ourselves are related to each other. It would be cool if it adds more to the biophysics of those processes and the possible picture of their evolution, as well as the physical characteristics of those biological structures.

    $\begingroup$ Your question would be a better fit on CognitiveSciences.SE. In fact your question is possibly a duplicate of this post. $\endgroup$

    $\begingroup$ I'd agree with @Remi.b to check CogSci - the recommendations in the linked question will probably get most of what you want, but your question touches on a lot of areas that probably won't all be found in detail in the same book; you will probably find more on biophysics in a more basic neuroscience textbook like this question; I'd expect more coverage of evolution of behavior in an Animal Behavior textbook. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ My other advice is that I'd recommend staying away from "evolutionary psychology" because that field is tainted with a lot of pseudoscience and disguised speculation, and it will be difficult to evaluate the claims critically without a lot of background knowledge. $\endgroup$

  • $\begingroup$ @Remi.b the books suggested into the answers to that question possibly aren't answering the questions i do have, neither there's much of discussion about the books in the answer. I checked on CogSci.SE few simillar questions were there but the recommended books weren't really getting around what i want as I have mentioned in the question, and few were bit perspective based. $\endgroup$
