這本2005年的書An Alchemy of Mind: The Marvel and Mystery of the Brain，不知道是否重譯？
時報文化剛出版。
媚俗的書名《趣味、記憶與愛慾》
"吸著水煙時隱時現的那隻貓" (頁30)，我查原書，找不到。
就問L. Carroll 專家張華兄：Alice 書中有水煙？
答曰：他弄亂了。吸水煙的是毛毛蟲。
An Alchemy of Mind: The Marvel and Mystery of the Brain Paperback – October 4, 2005 by Diane Ackerman
Review
"Ackerman [is] our poetic chronicler of the natural world."
-- Chicago Tribune
"[A] lovely...arresting...discourse on brain science."
-- Entertainment Weekly
"Partly close observation, partly free association, Ackerman's paean turns the inside of our heads into...[something] gorgeous, tender, jewelled."
-- The New York Times Book Review
"A love song to the brain...combines flights of lyricism and autobiographical reflection with a cooler, more cerebral amalgam of science, anthropology, psychology, history, and literature."
-- Francine Prose, More magazine
"Evocative and meaningful."
-- Carl Zimmer, The Washington Post
