His primary interest is in the applications of functional brain imaging to the study of higher cognitive functions in humans, although he is also well known for his earlier seminal work characterising the cognitive basis of schizophrenia.
With over 400 publications, Frith is one of the ISI Highly Cited authors in Neuroscience. His H-index is 117. He is author of a number of important neuroscience books, including the classic The Cognitive Neuropsychology of Schizophrenia (1992) and the popular science book Making up the Mind (2007) which achieved the long list for the Royal Society Science Book Award in 2008. He is a Fellow of the Royal Society, the British Academy and of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. In 2009 ha was awarded the Fyssen Foundation Prize for his work on neuropsychology [1] and he and Uta Frith were awarded the European Latsis Prize for their work linking the human mind and the human brain] [2].
Chris is the brother of Fred Frith, the guitarist, and Simon Frith, the musicologist. He is also the husband of Uta Frith, a leading developmental psychologist.

Inside your head there is an amazing labor saving device; more effective than the latest high-tech computer. Your brain frees you from the everyday tasks of moving about in the world around you, allowing you to concentrate on the things that are important to you; making friends and influencing people. However, the 'you' that is released into this social world is also a construction of your brain. It is your brain that enables you to share your mental life with the people around you.
Making Up the Mind is the first accessible account of experimental studies showing how the brain creates our mental world. Using evidence from brain imaging, psychological experiments, and patient studies, Chris Frith, one of the world's leading neuroscientists, explores the relationship between the mind and the brain.
这本书带给`我`的震撼很大,然而这很大的震撼我还不太描述的清楚,但是我看了一下书评区,大概并没有我想表达的意思。 这本书带给我最大的震撼是两个,一个是,关于世界的模型,它让我分清了主次,一个是,让我开始思考:“我之何在?” 一、 我们对世界的感知是与现实相符的...
评分 评分从去年开始看的,终于在今天看完,偶也! 最大的感受: 1)内容详实精彩,例子非常丰富(尤其是schizophrenia和synesthesia相关的),让人大开眼界。 2)作者讲述地非常清晰,一层一层深入的剖析很严谨,我个人感觉没有一个问题是他没讲清楚的,而且讲东西的韵律基本保持一...
评分很棒的书。 第一,不同于很多关于思维的书,本书不仅仅给出一个结论,重要的是有支持的理论和说服力的实验,一步一步的证明给你看。 第二,里面的实验大都配有插图,简单明了。奇怪的是本书的实验大部分都在其他的书中重复出现过很多次了,难道心理学里面的实验只有那几个吗,...
评分人盈于外观,而匮于内省,往往对认知结果印象深刻,而对认知过程感觉模糊。从生物进化论的视角来看,这一点也不奇怪。在残酷的生存竞争中,认知结果起关键作用,它能使我们做出恰当的行动,与身外的世界交互,并生存下来;至于获得结果的过程,已无关紧要,被我们彻底忽略了。 ...
kindle第19本。
评分知觉信息在大脑中被自动整合成认知模型,生物只能通过这个模型与外部世界互动。基于贝叶斯定理的认知模型是一个top down加工过程(利用已有知识经验对外界刺激作出筛选和预测)——构建认知模型,试行错误,修正模型直到错误微小到与现实冲突可忽略为止。而通过不断修正获得的主观现实充其量只是碰巧符合客观现实而已,两者之间还是存在不可弥补的鸿沟,依旧没有人知道外部世界的真实模样。便秘了很多年的想法终于疏通了,很满足。美中不足的是作者太抬举与生俱来的错觉本能,很多结论下得武断又仓促,用词特别唬人,给人一种印象,即被大脑欺骗和玩弄是不可回避的宿命。
评分没有那么喜欢哟
评分Too simple (and jokes are not funny thanks)! Bayesian model in the brain is the only interesting part. ps, damaged brains do very scaring things... sigh...
评分This is a book about how our brain works. Our minds are so full of hallucinations and delusions. Our perception of the world is a fantasy coincides with reality,
