Uncommon and compulsive thoughts, reasoning pushed to its limits, extreme sensorial and emotional sensitivity, a mind that constantly creates connections…: the high potential dusted off for the general public, but also for professionals!

Philo-Semitism Is Philo-Semitism an Antisemitism?
The ambiguities surrounding the Jewish question emanating from intellectuals and so-called “philo-semititic” personalities are closely analyzed here, in light of ever more troubling current events. A strong and disturbing book.

Phantoms in the Brain Human Nature and the Architecture of the Mind
How do we make decisions? Why do we deceive ourselves? Why do we dream? Why may we believe in God? Why do we laugh or become depressed? Few scientists have dared address these questions that inform our daily lives with so much acumen and audacity. V.S. Ramachandran is a brilliant Sherlock Holmes of neuroscience. He reveals the strangest case studies he has encountered of patients suffering from serious neurological disorders and the insights they yield about human nature and the workings of the mind. V.S. Ramachandran is professor and director of the Center for Brain and Cognition, at the University of California.

The Performance Diet Intelligence, Memory, Sexuality
How can we stay concentrated all day long? How can we avoid energy drops and sleepiness? How can we keep and develop our memory? How can we stimulate our intellectual alertness? How can we sleep well? How can we improve our sexuality? How can we stay fit and enhance our physical capacities? J.M. Bourre shows that the answers to all these questions and many others can be also found in what we eat.
