"In Pain and Joy of Envy, the Brain May Play a Role"
May play a role??? I guess the jury is still out on whether the seat of envy is actually in the liver. . . .
This level of scientific illiteracy disturbs me. I'm not knocking the news article or the scientific study being described there, just the headline, which is in a class by itself.
This isn't scientific illiteracy as much as a strong commitment to Cartesian dualism, which to be honest is pretty hard for even pretty sophisticated thinkers to get over.
Hey, it could be the soul, right?

Brain, liver, they can both express bile, what's the problem?
