具体描述
A groundbreaking investigation of the brain’s hidden logic behind our strangest behaviors, and of how conscious and unconscious systems interact in order to create our experience and preserve our sense of self.
From bizarre dreams and hallucinations to schizophrenia and multiple personalities, the human brain is responsible for a diverse spectrum of strange thoughts and behaviors. When observed from the outside, these phenomena are often written off as being just “crazy,” but what if they were actually planned and logical?
NeuroLogic explores the brain’s internal system of reasoning, from its unconscious depths to conscious decision making, and illuminates how it explains our most outlandish as well as our most stereotyped behaviors. From sleepwalking murderers, contagious yawning, and the brains of sports fans to false memories, subliminal messages, and the secret of ticklishness, Dr. Eliezer Sternberg shows that there are patterns to the way the brain interprets the world—–patterns that fit the brain’s unique logic. Unraveling these patterns and the various ways they can be disturbed will not only alter our view of mental illness and supernatural experience, but will also shed light on the hidden parts of ourselves.

作为一个二流神经科学researcher & 三流科普作者，我平时在看的神经科学科普书真不算少了。基本上国内市面上能买到的神经科普书我都看过。 在看一本神经科学科普书前，我比较喜欢先去搜一下这个作者的背景。 作者埃利泽·斯滕伯格博士是美国耶鲁纽黑文医院住院神经科医生。...
评分我们一直说“眼见为实”，可是我们真的能相信自己的眼睛吗？ 大家可以试试非注意盲视的视频，仔细数一数穿白衣服的球员一共传了多少次球。 这是一个非常有名的实验，它说明了“非注意盲视”（inattentional blindness）现象（海外党可以去youtube上搜索观看，很有趣），即当我...

虽然还原主义气息比较强，但覆盖全面，对催眠、幻觉、代偿等的解释都比较有力。案例很有趣。
评分悬疑般充满张力的科普书，到Evelyn的病例时达到阅读趣味的峰值。力推。
