In her new book, The Happy Introvert: A Wild and Crazy Guide for Celebrating Your True Self, author Elizabeth Wagele seeks to inspire quiet, thoughtful types to have more self-esteem—and fun. Using her own playful cartoons, Wagele dispels the notion that introverts are always depressed, and illustrates the humorous differences between the two personality types and the inevitable miscommunications that result. She tackles parenting, adolescence, relationships, and other practical topics, and for good measure, gives extraverts a (gentle) ribbing for assuming that introverts are trying to be just like them, but are simply "not doing a good job of it."
Scientists have recently found special neurons in the brainstem of rats which focus exclusively on new, novel sounds and help them ignore predictable and ongoing noises. These novelty detector neurons, as researchers call them, quickly stop firing if a sound or sound pattern is repeated. They will briefly resume firing if some aspect of the sound changes. The implications are, as usual, that we humans may be like rats.
