Jason Goldman selects several notable posts each week from Psychology and Neuroscience. He blogs at The Thoughtful Animal.
- What does The Little Prince have to do with psychology? Quite a bit. Read this beautiful post by Maria Konnikova at Literally Psyched. The Big Lesson of a Little Prince: (Re)capture the Creativity of Childhood.
- You’ve just read a paper that claims to be about embodied cognition. But is it really? Here’s a handy field guide from Andrew Wilson at Notes from Two Scientific Psychologists.
- “Does the Human Dorsal Stream,” asks the Neurocritic, “Really Process Elongated Vegetables?”
- The powerful neurotoxin that is Botox. Jordan Gaines in top form.
That’s it for this week… Check back next week for more great psychology and neuroscience blogging!
