Yanki Yazgan,
M.D. is transforming daily worries and mundane dilemmas of life in Istanbul
into a self exploration tool. In Feelings Run
Faster, Yazgan tells us
‘secrets’ borrowed from brain and behavior sciences about ever popular concepts
such as happiness, love, memory and risk and uncertainty. But he does not stop
there, and writes further about how our brain and mind works differentially
when we desperately change lanes in traffic, fall in love, move from one place to another or sip Turkish
coffee. While he offers no miraculous prescription
for change, the reading experience of Feelings
Run Faster may yield a new perspective to understand yourself and the way
you live. The joy and
surprise in the book also owe a lot to the illustrations and cartoons by the
author himself. This book certainly is one of Yanki
Yazgan's best for the readers who are looking for an informed soul
searching.
