  1. Patt Morrison Asks: Jonah Lehrer, brain teaser

    Zombies in movie theaters, zombies on television — a whole lot of us have brains on the brain. And so, in a substantially different way, does Jonah Lehrer.

Here in his native Los Angeles, the second-largest neural mass in the nation, Lehrer applies himself to sorting out the hard-wiring and the software that make up the stuff between our ears.

  2. Critic's Notebook: Under the influence of Hemingway

    For much of the 1980s, beginning when I was in college, I used to read a Hemingway book a year. The point was not self-improvement but rather a kind of exploration: What was it, exactly, about his writing that I'd missed? I had read "The Sun Also Rises" in high school and had admired its spare portrayal of 1920s expatriate life. But I'd also thought of it as more than a little stilted, even melodramatic in its way.

    In my family, we've never recognized a distinction between happiness and the handling of books.
    Los Angeles Times Staff Writer

  11. Psychedelic Spring: A new Grateful Dead documentary gives Deadheads a reason to tune in and turn on

    <span style="font-size: medium;">Every spring, I listen to the Grateful Dead with fresh ears, not to the exclusion of everything else, but close to it. (I'm not alone in this. How many people in the Northeast associate the Dead's music with thaw, both literal and spiritual?) </span>
