About this title

Synopsis

The brain: brilliant, powerful... and utterly bizarre.

Why would someone be terrified they might slip down a shower drain? Or insist they've turned into a cat? What can rare brain disorders—and surprisingly common mental quirks—teach us about how we think, feel, and behave?

In Bizarre, neuroscientist Dr. Marc Dingman explores the strangest corners of the mind, from delusions and phobias to everyday oddities that defy logic. These phenomena aren't just curiosities—they offer surprising insights into memory, emotion, decision-making, and the very nature of consciousness.

With clarity, empathy, and a touch of humor, Bizarre invites readers to see the brain not just as our most powerful tool, but as a machine that is endlessly weird—and endlessly revealing.
