The book is quite a academic and a boring one even with a literary name which left me the first impression as a motivational book.Eventually,I found I was absolutely wrong.Summary is listed as fellows: With the devolopment of the facilities,Brain researche...
评分01 要有敬畏之心。 心智是什么? 人类对这个问题探索了2500年,依然没有找到确切的答案。 人们曾经将心智认为是一种神秘的物质、能量或者灵魂,随着人类文明的发展,人们在哲学领域对此做了深入探讨,并发展出一个独立的学科,心理学。 心理学一度将心智作为一个黑箱来处理,这...
评分07年的书,Eric Kandel的《追寻的记忆》都出来了,这本还不出来。Eric Kandel的《追寻的记忆》在Amazon上N多人好评,这本书...只有五个人打分(不过全是五星)。书的推荐序里面就有Eric Kandel写的推荐。 总的来说: 作者很牛逼(自己到wikipedia上查);讲解很通俗;内容很有...
评分很棒的书。 第一,不同于很多关于思维的书,本书不仅仅给出一个结论,重要的是有支持的理论和说服力的实验,一步一步的证明给你看。 第二,里面的实验大都配有插图,简单明了。奇怪的是本书的实验大部分都在其他的书中重复出现过很多次了,难道心理学里面的实验只有那几个吗,...

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.
Too simple (and jokes are not funny thanks)! Bayesian model in the brain is the only interesting part. ps, damaged brains do very scaring things... sigh...
评分Despite some typos in this book, if possible, I'd like it to rate it with 6 stars, if not more.
评分This is a book about how our brain works. Our minds are so full of hallucinations and delusions. Our perception of the world is a fantasy coincides with reality,
