We talk to a neuroscientist who's out with a new book to help us organize our minds.
Neuroscientist Daniel Levitin joins us to discuss his new book "The Organized Mind." Levitin argues that while evolution did not equip our brains to handle today's multimedia world, if we understand how the brain works we can develop strategies that will make us more efficient.
