La nueva biología de la mente

Rate this book
Los trastornos neurológicos y psiquiátricos han sido considerados como algo completamente distinto dependiendo de si parecen afectar el cerebro o la mente. Sin embargo, lo cierto es que el cerebro y la mente son inseparables. Ambos tipos de trastornos pueden afectar todos los aspectos de la función cerebral: desde la percepción, la acción, la memoria y la emoción hasta la empatía, la interacción social, la atención y la conciencia. Sobre la base de su pionera investigación, Eric R. Kandel ilustra cómo los innovadores estudios sobre trastornos cerebrales pueden profundizar nuestra comprensión del pensamiento, los sentimientos, el comportamiento, la memoria y la creatividad, y quizás en el futuro transformarán la atención médica y conducirán al desarrollo de una teoría unificada de la mente.
