The Human Mind (2007)
Low level coarse language, Mature theme
| Actors: |
Enlightening, uplifting and refreshingly innovative, this series takes a pioneering journey through the unexplored galaxy inside our own heads. Combining cutting edge science with extraordinary experiments, dazzling graphics and inspiring human stories, it shows how personality is formed throughout our lives and how our minds work to win friends and influence people. By exploring the science behind the workings of the human mind, the programmes reveal what each of us can do to make the most of its remarkable capability - including how to literally 'think faster' and even master our most powerful emotions.

MIXED FEELINGS
says
Consists of 3 parts: cognition; personality and interpersonal interactions/recognition of emotions. Some experiments have been insightful (for instance showing that younger babies are better at recognising individual faces of primates other than humans than older babies, etc.). However some other experiments were very poorly designed (for instance positive responses of people to the lady trying on unflattering clothing reflect more on what is considered culturally appropriate in a given culture, not so much on people being able to "read the face" of the actress and her expectations...)
Overall a mixed bag, some trivialities , simplistic commentary and pseudo-science (psychology) but also some gems in between all that nonsense. Three stars from me.
