全书是比较专业的神经科学的一个问题的讨论。作者质疑比较流行的镜像神经元的观点。但是不知为何写了这么一本书而不是在学术期刊上发表观点。书中的内容相对比较专业,我有许多地方看不懂。 总体评价2星。 以下是书中一些信息的摘抄,#号后面是kindle电子版的页码: 1:里佐...

评分什么是“镜像神经元”?为何说它是一个神话? 20世纪90年代,美国科学家发现,当恒河猴抓取物体以及观察其他人抓取物体时,某一类脑细胞就会产生反应。这意味着猴子“理解”自己的行动,知道动作的目的是什么,为什么要设立这一目的,同时它知道其他的猴子想要干什么。如果把猴...
评分我第一次接触到镜像神经元这个名词是在百度百科上,里面有关于镜像神经元的历史沿革。当时我就联想到了孟子的一个东西,就是“恻隐之心,人皆有之”这个命题。我想镜像神经元的发现不就是一个很好的生物学注脚。于是我和很多人聊天时都会讲一讲那个“恒河猴”的实验,其中不乏...

An essential reconsideration of one of the most far-reaching theories in modern neuroscience and psychology.
In 1992, a group of neuroscientists from Parma, Italy, reported a new class of brain cells discovered in the motor cortex of the macaque monkey. These cells, later dubbed mirror neurons, responded equally well during the monkey’s own motor actions, such as grabbing an object, and while the monkey watched someone else perform similar motor actions. Researchers speculated that the neurons allowed the monkey to understand others by simulating their actions in its own brain.
Mirror neurons soon jumped species and took human neuroscience and psychology by storm. In the late 1990s theorists showed how the cells provided an elegantly simple new way to explain the evolution of language, the development of human empathy, and the neural foundation of autism. In the years that followed, a stream of scientific studies implicated mirror neurons in everything from schizophrenia and drug abuse to sexual orientation and contagious yawning.
In The Myth of Mirror Neurons, neuroscientist Gregory Hickok reexamines the mirror neuron story and finds that it is built on a tenuous foundation—a pair of codependent assumptions about mirror neuron activity and human understanding. Drawing on a broad range of observations from work on animal behavior, modern neuroimaging, neurological disorders, and more, Hickok argues that the foundational assumptions fall flat in light of the facts. He then explores alternative explanations of mirror neuron function while illuminating crucial questions about human cognition and brain function: Why do humans imitate so prodigiously? How different are the left and right hemispheres of the brain? Why do we have two visual systems? Do we need to be able to talk to understand speech? What’s going wrong in autism? Can humans read minds?
The Myth of Mirror Neurons not only delivers an instructive tale about the course of scientific progress—from discovery to theory to revision—but also provides deep insights into the organization and function of the human brain and the nature of communication and cognition.

评分Being based on the principle that correlation does not necessarily imply causation, rather than accepting the conventional interpretation of the correlational data, it carefully inspects the rationale of the existing explanation and the possibility of alternative assumptions, adopting the best explanation based on a broader view of the evidence
