Anxiety is the most prevalent psychiatric problem of our time. Decades of research have gone into probing its mysteries and developing treatments. But what if we’ve been thinking about fear and anxiety in the wrong way for all these years?This is the groundbreaking premise behind a wave of new research, led by the lab of renowned neuroscientist Joseph LeDoux. He believes that fear and anxiety are not innate states, simply waiting to be unleashed in the brain. Rather they are assembled experiences, and that has huge implications for patients. By mapping brain circuits, LeDoux explains the origins of anxiety disorders and reveals discoveries that can restore sufferers to normality. As impressive as it is timely, Anxious is a comprehensive survey of cutting-edge research revolutionising the way we treat our most pressing mental health issue.

The science behind David Goleman's Emotional IntelligenceThe Emotional Brain provides a cutting-edge scientific background to such books as Daniel Goleman's Emotional Intelligence, showing that while cognitive studies have tended to ignore the emotions, we are increasingly understanding how crucial they are to our evolutionary survival, as shortcuts to cut through conscious reasoning when speed and rules-of-thumb are more important and effective than logic.Much of our emotional life is lived unconsciously, and is far richer than simply our conscious feelings - for example, our conscious mind will already be reacting to situations of danger some time before we begin to be afraid.Not only does LeDoux present a fascinating insight into how our emotions function normally, but also provides a new understanding of emotional disorders.

A leading neuroscientist offers a history of the evolution of the brain from unicellular organisms to the complexity of animals and human beings todayRenowned neuroscientist Joseph LeDoux digs into the natural history of life on earth to provide a new perspective on the similarities between us and our ancestors in deep time. This page-turning survey of the whole of terrestrial evolution sheds new light on how nervous systems evolved in animals, how the brain developed, and what it means to be human.In The Deep History of Ourselves LeDoux argues that the key to understanding all human behavior lies in viewing evolution through the prism of the first living organisms. By tracking the chain of the evolutionary timeline he shows how even the earliest single cell organisms had to solve the same problems we and our cells have to solve today in order to survive and thrive. Along the way, LeDoux explores our place in nature, how conscious brain function climbed the tree of life, and how the brain managed to transcend its early concern with survival to reach towards what we humans understand as consciousness.

“[Anxious] helps to explain and prevent the kinds of debilitating anxieties all of us face in this increasingly stressful world.” —Daniel J. Levitin, author of The Organized Mind and This Is Your Brain On MusicA comprehensive and accessible exploration of anxiety, from a leading neuroscientist and the author of Synaptic SelfCollectively, anxiety disorders are our most prevalent psychiatric problem, affecting about forty million adults in the United States. In Anxious, Joseph LeDoux, whose NYU lab has been at the forefront of research efforts to understand and treat fear and anxiety, explains the range of these disorders, their origins, and discoveries that can restore sufferers to normalcy.LeDoux’s groundbreaking premise is that we’ve been thinking about fear and anxiety in the wrong way. These are not innate states waiting to be unleashed from the brain, but experiences that we assemble cognitively. Treatment of these problems must address both their conscious manifestations and underlying non-conscious processes. While knowledge about how the brain works will help us discover new drugs, LeDoux argues that the greatest breakthroughs may come from using brain research to help reshape psychotherapy.A major work on our most pressing mental health issue, Anxious explains the science behind fear and anxiety disorders.

What happens in our brains to make us feel fear, love, hate, anger, joy? Do we control our emotions, or do they control us? Do animals have emotions? How can traumatic experiences in early childhood influence adult behavior, even though we have no conscious memory of them? In The Emotional Brain, Joseph LeDoux investigates the origins of human emotions and explains that many exist as part of complex neural systems that evolved to enable us to survive. One of the principal researchers profiled in Daniel Goleman''s Emotional Intelligence, LeDoux is a leading authority in the field of neural science. In this provocative book, he explores the brain mechanisms underlying our emotions -- mechanisms that are only now being revealed.

In 1996 Joseph LeDoux''s The Emotional Brain presented a revelatory examination of the biological bases of our emotions and memories. Now, the world-renowned expert on the brain has produced with a groundbreaking work that tells a more profound story: how the little spaces between the neurons—the brain''s synapses—are the channels through which we think, act, imagine, feel, and remember. Synapses encode the essence of personality, enabling each of us to function as a distinctive, integrated individual from moment to moment. Exploring the functioning of memory, the synaptic basis of mental illness and drug addiction, and the mechanism of self-awareness, Synaptic Self is a provocative and mind-expanding work that is destined to become a classic.

Après avoir mis en évidence le circuit neural de la peur, prise comme modèle pour étudier les bases neurales des émotions, dans The Emotional Brain, Joseph LeDoux poursuit dans Neurobiologie de la personnalité son analyse en allant plus profondément jusqu’aux constituants cellulaires de ces circuits, ou plus précisément jusqu’à leurs interconnexions cellulaires, à savoir les synapses, ces espaces entre les neurones traversés par des signaux chimiques et électriques. Mais en même temps qu’il descend au plus élémentaire, il pose une question très profonde : Comment se constitue notre personnalité ? Qu’est-ce qui maintient sa permanence dans le temps à travers tous les changements que nous subissons ou que nous décidons ?Car ce n’est pas seulement à travers nos synapses que nous pensons, agissons, mémorisons, ce sont elles qui codent nos traits les plus personnels, nos préférences et nos croyances. Les interconnexions synaptiques sont établies par nos expériences personnelles, c’est donc nous qui façonnons notre cerveau, nous qui fabriquons notre personnalité. Joseph LeDoux est professeur au centre de neurosciences de l’Université de New York.

»Dies ist ein außergewöhnliches Buch, eine tiefgründige Geschichte von uns selbst.«Eric R. Kandel, Nobelpreisträger für Medizin 2000Die Urgeschichte des Bewusstseins bei Mensch und Tier entfaltet Joseph LeDoux als überwältigendes Epos: Vier Milliarden Jahre dauerte bereits die Evolution vom Einzeller bis zum Gehirn bei Mensch und Tier. Das menschliche (Selbst)Bewusstsein eröffnet Chancen und Gefahren. Um sie zu begreifen, geht LeDoux zurück an den Beginn der Evolution auf der Erde.Das unendliche Panorama des Lebens rollt Joseph LeDoux, einer der weltweit führenden Neurowissenschaftler, als Naturgeschichte auf, um bisher kaum erahnte Perspektiven zu eröffnen. Packend verdichtet sich dieser großartige Überblick zur verblüffenden Einsicht, wie sehr wir unseren Vorfahren ähneln, deren Spuren noch immer in uns zu finden sind. Wie haben sich Nervensysteme vom Einzeller bis hin zu den Tieren immer vielschichtiger aufgebaut? Wie konnten sich Gehirne bei Primaten und Menschen ausbilden? Wie erlangten wir Bewusstsein? Und warum ereignet sich das »Wunder der Selbsterkenntnis« überhaupt? Welche Chancen und Gefahren bedeutet es heute, am Ende des Anthropozäns, ein selbstbewusster Mensch zu sein? Joseph LeDoux beschreibt die Vor- und Frühgeschichte des menschlichen Selbstbewusstseins, die mehr als vier Milliarden Jahre umgreift. Es ist eine umfassende Urgeschichte von fast allem, was den Menschen kennzeichnet, ausmacht und ihn so einzigartig und so bedrohlich für Natur, Tier und sich selbst werden ließ.
