From Wikipedia:
Professor Chris Frith FRS, FBA (born March 16, 1942, United Kingdom - ) is an Emeritus Professor at the Wellcome Trust Centre for Neuroimaging at University College London and a Niels Bohr Visiting Professor at the University of Aarhus, Denmark. 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.
Since 2005, Chris has been on the editorial board of Biology Letters, dealing with papers in the category, Neurobiology.
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.
读此书还是冲着汪丁丁的推荐去的。 书的内容不知是作者有意取舍,还是资料较老,大多数都是已经知道的。信息感与新知启发均较为缺缺。 作者此书的写法也是针对普通读者,对阅读期待较高的我而言,落差较大。 当然其中的实验性证据还是比较重要。 总之,阅读体验平平。
評分喜欢这种用实验,故事,数据进行叙述的书。我们善于联想,总是试图归纳看到的事物背后的规律,即使对随机事件也本能的倾向于此。思维的进化在某种程度上类似于贝叶斯模型,起初可能并不精确,随着观察和理解的深入,逐渐提高精度。但这不是自然而然的结果,如果意识不到这是个...
評分人盈于外观,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。 ...
評分为什么我们会产生各种各样的视觉错觉?弯曲的帕特农神庙基座在我们看来是笔直的;同样身高的三个人在艾姆斯屋中看起来高矮各异;视网膜上存在盲点但我们却很难发现;即使认识到这些视觉错觉的存在,我们也无法从意识中去除它们,几千年来,帕特农神庙的基座看起来依然是笔直的...
評分我怎么现在才遇到这本书呢?这是我看到一半时的感受。 说明一下我的意思: 在我为自己忧伤12年之后, 在我研究心理学4年之后, 在我研究社会学3年之后, 在我为了想改变,读了如此多的书的时候《拖延心理学》,《自尊的六大支柱》等等的时候, 在我和其他人一起吐槽心灵鸡...
認知的層次:大腦神經元neurons->感知Perception->知覺awareness->意識mind。感知無時無刻不在進行,而大多數時候我們都沒有知覺到。而意識是我們對世界的建模,這個建模在人齣生時就已存在,人類認識世界的過程,就是對意識中這個世界的模型進行不斷試錯(trial and error)並完善的過程。但是有些根深蒂固的模型,可能在這麼試錯,卻很難被變更——這就産生瞭偏見。
评分從頭到尾穿插英式幽默好評 語言簡單明瞭易懂
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...
评分知覺信息在大腦中被自動整閤成認知模型,生物隻能通過這個模型與外部世界互動。基於貝葉斯定理的認知模型是一個top down加工過程(利用已有知識經驗對外界刺激作齣篩選和預測)——構建認知模型,試行錯誤,修正模型直到錯誤微小到與現實衝突可忽略為止。而通過不斷修正獲得的主觀現實充其量隻是碰巧符閤客觀現實而已,兩者之間還是存在不可彌補的鴻溝,依舊沒有人知道外部世界的真實模樣。便秘瞭很多年的想法終於疏通瞭,很滿足。美中不足的是作者太抬舉與生俱來的錯覺本能,很多結論下得武斷又倉促,用詞特彆唬人,給人一種印象,即被大腦欺騙和玩弄是不可迴避的宿命。
评分文筆很有趣,內容引人入勝,注解很好玩。我對I and my brain的認識因為此書有一些改變,unconsciousness的力量遠比想象中強大得多
