    About this audiobook

    The Human Machine shows that for all the time we humans dedicate to learning, very little of that time is spent pondering on how to live life well, and to the fullest. The author considered the human brain as a machine. He teaches us in a persuasive manner how to get along with people in today's world, how to develop a human brain, how to form good habits and train your mind.

      Mar 21, 2017

      I was at my father’s side much of the time in his final weeks, a witness to both the gifts and miseries of being near death. Nurses came and went, patient, long-suffering. They sat beside him for hours at a time, dousing spongy lollipops in water and
