Beskrivning

In this wide-ranging, highly readable book, Dr Leslie Brothers reveals the brain as a social organ - adapted to respond to and process specific social stimuli that are unique to human evolution. Findings from neuroscience, cognitive science, psychiatry, neuropsychology, anthropology, palaeontology, and sociology together present a convincing argument: that it is not possible to understand the products of human evolution - whether language, consciousness, or emotion - in the absence of a social context.

Recensioner i media

Sociologists interested in an introduction to the developing fields of neurosociology will find a real treat in this volume... At minimum, Leslie Brothers provides strong neurological data to support the idea of the self as an owner of conscious experience, as well as the idea of the social nature of the physical brain itself.
