Prestel Publishing Can Neuroscience Change Our Minds

Product description

Neuroscience, with its astonishing new technologies, is uncovering the workings of the brain and with this perhaps the mind. The 'neuro' prefix spills out into every area of life, from neuroaesthetics to neuroeconomics, neurogastronomy and neuroeducation. With its promise to cure physical and social ills, the government sees neuroscience as a tool to increase the 'mental capital' of the children of the deprived and workless. It sets aside the intensifying poverty and inequality, instead claiming that basing children's upbringing and education on brain science will transform both the child's and the nation's health and wealth. Leading critics of such neuro-myths, neuroscientist steven rose and science sociologist hilary rose take a skeptical look at these claims and the science underlying them, sifting out the sensible from the snake oil. Neurobilim tek başına bu umutların yükünü taşıyamayacağını savunarak, bilimin neoliberalliğin siyasi ekonomisini nasıl şekillendirdiğini ve onu nasıl şekillendirdiğini inceliyorlar.
