In this episode, I talk to Gregory Hickok: cognitive neuroscientist at UC Irvine, specialized in the neuroanatomy of language. Greg’s book: The Myth of Mirror Neurons, dispels with the mainstream interpretation of mirror neurons.
We discuss the discovery of mirror neurons, why Greg doesn’t buy the theory, everyday mind reading, theory of mind, split brain patients, and how humans justify their actions.
