西方哲學之中一個關鍵問題是心靈和身體的關係，也就是心-腦問題或心-身問題。當討論到心靈和身體關係、即心-身問題時，哲學家長久以來一直在「心靈的存在」和「實在問題」上思索與論證。作者質疑這樣傳統的心-身問題提問法。那麼，我們該如何對心靈特質提出更合理的問題？本書深入探索腦神經科學實證、歷程哲學、現象學、科學哲學、心靈哲學，乃至中國哲學等各種跨領域研究，提出超越既有視角觀點的世界-腦問題。作者以世界-腦關係的角度切入，試圖在神經科學與哲學界掀起一場哥白尼式革命。除了闡述作者自身的論證之外，本書更重要的特色是：書中邀請國內多位不同領域的專家，針對作者的重要論點撰寫「序」及「問題與挑戰」，並由作者予以詳實地「延伸討論與回應」。透過這種學術論辯，期盼能讓讀者一窺「原來自己的大腦不只是在腦袋內，而是一直和宇宙有著連成一氣」的最深刻奧祕！

'An amazing piece of work ... Timely and beautifully written' Bessel van der Kolk, author of The Body Keeps the Score'Clearly articulated science ... illuminating' Gabor Mate, author of When the Body Says No_______________________________________________________________________As a society, we push aside stories of remarkable recovery which don't fit our paradigm of one cause, one cure.In the history of medicine, we have almost never used the tools of rigorous science to investigate remarkable recoveries from incurable illnesses. But, Dr Jeff Rediger, a world-leading Harvard medic, psychiatrist and theologian, has spent the last fifteen years studying thousands of individuals from around the world and examining the stories behind these extraordinary cases of spontaneous remission. From retiree Claire, diagnosed with a violent form of pancreatic cancer and given weeks to live, to 23-year-old Matt, given a 2 per cent chance of surviving a lethal brain tumour.Both rejected chemotherapy an

Where do spontaneous thoughts come from? It may be surprising that the seemingly straightforward answers "from the mind" or "from the brain" are in fact an incredibly recent understanding of the origi

Increasing evidence identifies the possibility of restoring function to the damaged brain via exogenous therapies. One major target for these advances is stroke, where most patients can be left with significant disability. Treatments have the potential to improve the victim's quality of life significantly and reduce the time and expense of rehabilitation. Brain Repair After Stroke reviews the biology of spontaneous brain repair after stroke in animal models and in humans. Detailed chapters cover the many forms of therapy being explored to promote brain repair and consider clinical trial issues in this context. This book provides a summary of the neurobiology of innate and treatment-induced repair mechanisms after hypoxia and reviews the state of the art for human therapeutics in relation to promoting behavioral recovery after stroke. Essential reading for stroke physicians, neurologists, rehabilitation physicians and neuropsychologists.

Almost all the organizing books on the market today target the "left-brainer" - people who are generally disciplined, neat, and analytical. But for those who are more creative and spontaneous rather

Mind meets microchip as a brilliant young genius develops a machine capable of spontaneous thought. Before he can perfect the machine, terrorists steal his research and put a bullet through his brain.

Spontaneous 'resting-state' fluctuations in neuronal activity offer insights into the inherent organisation of the human brain, and may provide markers for diagnosis and treatment of mental disorders.
