Sitting atop your brain stem is what looks like a sculpture
of a scorpion carrying a slightly puckered egg on its back. The
Paleomammalian brain appears in you the same way it does in
many mammals, such as house cats, which is how it got its name.
It has more to do with your animal survival than with your human
potential. Most of its functions involve what some researchers
call the “four F’s”: fighting, feeding, fleeing, and … reproductive
behavior.
