About the book
An innovative investigation into how the prefrontal cortex—the seat of reason, planning, and executive control—shapes our capacity for leadership, decision-making, and adaptive behavior. Goldberg combines cutting-edge neuroscientific research with clinical observations to explore how our "brain executives" function and what happens when they fail.
The book offers valuable insights not only for neuroscience and psychology, but also for leaders and professionals interested in understanding the neurological foundations of cognition, emotion, and behavior, connecting brain function to practical questions of mental health, creativity, and performance.
