Synopsis "Seeing the Mind "

A lavishly illustrated and accessibly explained deep dive into the major new findings from cognitive neuroscience. Who are we? To this age-old question, contemporary neuroscience gives a simple answer: we are exquisite neuronal machines. Each of our dreams, thoughts, and feelings arises from a pattern of activity in our brain. In Stanislas Dehaene's Seeing the Mind, we learn not only that the mind maps onto the brain, but that it is just a complex electrical motif on the tapestry of our neurons. In this richly illustrated and highly accessible book, Dehaene uses the power of brain images to tell the story of centuries-old efforts to understand who we are, and how it is possible that our thoughts emerge from just three pounds of flesh. Seeing the Mind is divided into one hundred topics, each described by a spectacular full-page color image and, on the facing page, a brief text that explains what this image means and why it matters. By weaving together images and text, the book brings readers into the intimacy of their own brains. As Dehaene explains, "All the gorgeous biological processes that you are about to discover are taking place, right now, inside your own brain." A modern cabinet of curiosities, Seeing the Mind is an intriguing and memorable read that will astonish readers with a direct, face-to-face meeting with themselves--and with the material stuff of their thoughts and dreams.

View Author's Page
Stanislas Dehaene (Roubaix, France, May 12, 1965) is an internationally renowned cognitive neuroscientist, recognized for his research on numerical cognition, the neural bases of reading, and the neural correlates of consciousness. Since 2017, he has held the chair of Experimental Cognitive Psychology at the Collège de France and, since 1989, has directed the INSERM Unit 562 of Cognitive Neuroimaging.

Dehaene earned his bachelor's degree in mathematics at the École Normale Supérieure in Paris and completed his PhD in Experimental Psychology in 1989 under the supervision of Jacques Mehler. His most influential work, The Number Sense (1997), popularized the concept of "number sense," an innate ability to understand numbers and arithmetic relationships.

Throughout his career, he has received numerous accolades, such as the Centennial Fellowship from the James S. McDonnell Foundation in 1999, the Grand Scientific Prize from the Louis D. Foundation of the Institut de France in 2003, and the "Brain" Prize in 2014.

In addition to his research work, Dehaene has been an associate editor of the journal Cognition and a member of the editorial board of several scientific publications. His work has had a significant impact on the understanding of human mental processes and continues to be a reference in the field of cognitive neuroscience.

El libro era el que yo pedí, un libro maravilloso en tapa dura. Lo único malo fue que al parecer en el trayecto las puntas superiores se doblaron, ojalá para viajes largos envolver mucho más el libro.
