Quotes by Paolo Legrenzi  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“As all fields of human knowledge depend on the functioning of the brain, there is nothing to prevent the application of neuropsychology to disciplines such as economics, aesthetics, pedagogy, theology, etc.”
Paolo Legrenzi, Neuromania: On the limits of brain science

“Elizabeth Phelps, a neuroscientist at New York University, stated that while it is correct that the amygdala is affected by a state of anxiety, the same holds true for strong odors, sexually stimulating images, and so on. It is rash and misleading to claim, on these grounds alone, that a candidate like Mitt Romney throws the electorate into a state of anxiety (Legrenzi 63).”
Paolo Legrenzi, Neuromania: On the limits of brain science
