FYiPOST: Encephalon carnival 84: Psychology-neuroscience roundup

The dominant theme of this month's Encephalon blog carnival is that no matter how straightforward something may appear, it is not always that simple. Among the intriguing offerings:

• Taylor Burns at Cognoculture discusses some of the misconceptions about testosterone in a brief essay, Testosterone and human aggression. 

• Dave Deriso at The Artful Brain examines Cotard syndrome in What is Truth? And What is 'Walking-Dead' Syndrome?. 

• In The Mathematician in the Asylum, forensic psychologist Romeo Vitelli at Providentia explores the life of Andre Bloch, a leading French mathematician who spent 30 years in an asylum after knifing three family members to death.   

Hosting the 84^th edition of Encephalon is Janet Kwasniak, who blogs about consciousness at "Thoughts on Thoughts." Janet is in France, but wherever you are the content is just a click away – HERE.
