Why is it characteristic of humans to walk upright, to think and to speak? How does all this play out in our brains? Questions shared step by step by the philosopher Roger-Pol Droit and the neurologist Yves Agid
Why do we think while walking and how do we walk while thinking? What is the relationship between these three characteristics of our human species: thinking, speaking and walking upright on our two legs? Would walking promote thought? How does our brain control both leg movement, balance and body posture? Why have so many sages and thinkers always philosophized while walking?
With Roger-Pol Right, philosopher and writer Yves Agidprofessor of neurology and cell biology at Sorbonne University, for their book I walk therefore I think published by Albin Michel.
