"The Joy of Being Eaten," subtitled: "Journeys into the Bizarre Sexuality and Private Love Lives of the Ancient Layers of the Human Brain" is a science fiction novel based on psychology, and includes (1) the newest factual brain-imaging research that reads the mind (Professor Jack Gallant see demonstration video at http://gallantlab.org), (2) triune brain evolution of layers of the brain (Paul MacLean, late Senior Research Scientist at National Institute of Mental Health), (3) the paleoanthropology of the Homo erectus people, (4) the neuroscience of the holograms of the mind (Professor Karl Pribram), and (5) the artificial intelligence of tomorrow. "The Joy" is the story of two young women who journey into the ancient layers of the brain to experience 200 million years of "deep autobiographical memory" that includes our reptilian past and the Homo erectus people (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autobiographical_memory). This strongly science-based novel is an excellent supplemental reader for college-level courses in psychology, anthropology, computer science, and physics, or a helpful reader for anyone undergoing any of the psychological therapies.
