Using the tools of neuroscience and social science, researchers have learned a great deal about the brain's role in human behavior and interactions. This volume is the proceedings of the first Barcelona Social Brain Conference, which was organized by the New York Academy of Sciences, the Fundació Catalana per a la Recerca i la Innovació, the Càtedra UAB "el cervell social," and the European Science Foundation. Through a neuroscientific lens, the invited chapters examine the human qualities of empathy, sacred values, and cooperation, and focus on the ways in which what they learn can be used to understand human conflicts.

I have to say upfront, I'm not part of the target audience for this book. I'm not an academic and don't work in the social neuroscience / social cognition area. But I do some little social science writing and this area appeals to me, so as an educated laymen, I got a copy on inter-library loan. I'm definitely not disappointed. While there are some areas that require more expertise than I have, particularly in brain anatomy, much of the work described in these papers was quite understandable. The authors are good at realizing their readers may not be specialists in the author's area, so they take the time to explain concepts. E.g., if you don't know what the ultimatum game is, you certainly will after reading this, as several of the authors refer to it -- and explain it.
