What are personality disorders and how do they influence the way our minds work? Why do accidental savants exist and can we recreate them? What is the psychology of gift giving?

Why do we do the things we do? Lowell Brillante investigates the complex details of our minds - from psychopathology to excellence, nature to nurture. We've sequenced the human genome and explored Mars, but we still don't really understand how our brains work. Join Lowell as he talks to leading experts about what we know and don't know about our minds.
