📘 About This Book
Hardbound. This volume forms a milestone in the continuing effort to analyze brain-mind relationships. Based on a stimulating meeting in which participants attempted to integrate heterogenous ideas and concepts related to brain and mind, the basic strategy is to find counterparts in neuroscience and cognitive science. Articles are presented on the subjects of Attention and Action, Memory and Learning, Space Representation, Motor Sequences and Frontal Lobe Function. These are central problems cur
📖 الملخص
Published in 1997 and spanning 364 hardbound pages, Brain and Mind, edited by Masao Itō, stands as a notable milestone in the ongoing scientific effort to analyze and understand the intricate relationship between the physical brain and the abstract mind. The volume is rooted in a stimulating academic meeting where leading participants attempted to integrate heterogeneous ideas and concepts from multiple disciplines. Rather than isolating biological mechanisms from cognitive theories, the book employs a strategic approach designed to find meaningful counterparts between neuroscience and cognitive science. By bridging these two major domains, the collection offers readers a coordinated look at how physical neural architecture relates to psychological and mental phenomena. The chapters within the book are meticulously organized around several central problems currently being addressed in contemporary brain research. Key subject areas explored in the volume include attention and action, me
