Inside your head there is an amazing labor saving device; more effective than the latest high-tech computer. Your brain frees you from the everyday tasks of moving about in the world around you, allowing you to concentrate on the things that are important to you; making friends and influencing people. However, the 'you' that is released into this social world is also a construction of your brain. It is your brain that enables you to share your mental life with the people around you.
Making Up the Mind is the first accessible account of experimental studies showing how the brain creates our mental world. Using evidence from brain imaging, psychological experiments, and patient studies, Chris Frith, one of the world's leading neuroscientists, explores the relationship between the mind and the brain.

评分大神Chirs Firth的这本Making up the mind, 心智的构建——脑如何创造我们的精神世界如果用为一句话来概括的话,大约可以表达为:生物统一性vs文化多样性(可惜Firth没有明显的提出来,而我又早在迪昂那里看到了),虽然douban上的评介很高,不过个人以为这本书的优点和缺点同...
评分人盈于外观,而匮于内省,往往对认知结果印象深刻,而对认知过程感觉模糊。从生物进化论的视角来看,这一点也不奇怪。在残酷的生存竞争中,认知结果起关键作用,它能使我们做出恰当的行动,与身外的世界交互,并生存下来;至于获得结果的过程,已无关紧要,被我们彻底忽略了。 ...
