Ricillo talks about the role of human communication in the neurosocial evolution of the brain. He talks about the development of early childhood communication, and about a recent study involving researching the thinking process from low-level abstraction to high-level abstraction. Riccillo also explains why talking to yourself isn't necessarily a bad thing!
