Why blame me? It was all my brain's fault | Raymond Tallis - Times Online
Imagine this futuristic courtroom scene. The defence barrister stands up, and pointing to his client in the dock, makes this plea: "The case against Mr X must be dismissed. He cannot be held responsible for smashing Mr Y's face into a pulp. He is not guilty, it was his brain that did it. Blame not Mr X, but his overactive amygdala."
