Brain Functioning
Summary

The way the brain compartmentalizes information is different from what one might imagine from mere psychological introspection, and introspection itself may be flawed due to a lack of understanding of the brain's inner workings. Viewing the brain as an information processing system reveals emergent phenomena related to how it processes information.
