此书将我领入神经科学的世界。他是学术大牛,也是很好的presenter。
评分有些地方读的好痛苦,可能是缺乏相关知识~~~
评分这老头是在哈佛做的精神分析,结果那做神经的那谁前两年就跟我说,你也去,赶紧的,就家旁边,最好了。
评分信息量比较大,一本书看了一个多月,中间总是停下来查各种概念性的问题,挺后悔没有学理科的。刷新了我对记忆和学习的认知,作者说话的口气,做事的态度非常喜欢!
评分其中内容大部分从其它渠道比如科学美国人了解了。所以所获不多。
埃里克·坎德尔(Eric R.Kandel)1929年出生于奥地利的维也纳,1956年毕业于美国纽约大学,获医学博士学位。1983年至今任哥伦比亚大学生物化学与分子生物物理学系教授、霍华休斯医学研究中心高级研究员。2000年获诺贝尔生理学或医学奖。
From Publishers Weekly
When, as a medical student in the 1950s, Kandel said he wanted to locate the ego and id in the brain, his mentor told him he was overreaching, that the brain had to be studied "cell by cell." After his initial dismay, Kandel took on the challenge and in 2000 was awarded a Nobel Prize for his groundbreaking research showing how memory is encoded in the brain's neuronal circuits. Kandel's journey into the brain spans five decades, beginning in the era of early research into the role of electrical currents flowing through neurons and ending in the age of genetic engineering. It took him from early studies of reflexes in the lowly squid to the founding of a bioengineering firm whose work could some day develop treatments for Alzheimer's and on to a rudimentary understanding of the cellular mechanisms underlying mental illness. Kandel's life also took him on another journey: from Vienna, which his Jewish family fled after the Anschluss, to New York City and, decades later, on visits back to Vienna, where he boldly confronted Austria's unwillingness to look at its collusion in the Final Solution. For anyone considering a career in science, the early part of this intellectual autobiography presents a fascinating portrait of a scientist's formation: learning to trust his instincts on what research to pursue and how to pose a researchable question and formulate an experiment. Much of the science discussion is too dense for the average reader. But for anyone interested in the relationship between the mind and the brain, this is an important account of a creative and highly fruitful career. 50 b&w illus. (Mar.)

From Scientific American
Kandel, who received the Nobel Prize in 2000, traces advances in understanding learning and memory. His own groundbreaking findings showed that learning produces changes in behavior by modifying the strength of connections between nerve cells. He conveys his immense grasp of the science beautifully, but it is his personal recollections that make the book especially compelling. He begins with his searing childhood memories of the German annexation of Austria and his family’s escape to the U.S. when he was nine. And he ends with a conference he organized in Vienna to examine the strange reluctance of Austria (unlike Germany) to acknowledge its role in the Holocaust. One comes away in awe of the scientific advances—and of a life well and fully lived.

评分这本美籍犹太裔神经科学家、诺贝尔生理学或医学奖得主埃里克·坎德尔写的《追寻记忆的痕迹》,身为一个996,我花了20天左右,每天下班之后利用业余的时间坚持阅读完毕。每天仅读1~2章,不敢读太多,这是因为这本书有太多太多对我来说未知的词汇,以及大量的理论需要消化。读的...
评分五年了。 在我提笔撰写这篇序言时,脑海里正经历着一次心理时间旅行,围绕本书翻译工作的种种记忆及情绪涌上心头。这些往事对我个人来说很有意义,却没必要与读者分享。作为一名把这本书通读过许多遍的“资深”读者,我试图站在读者的角度,分享这部笔酣墨饱之作的吸睛之处,并...
评分这是一本不可多得的好书,五星推荐。 书名“in search of memory”一语双关,一方面指作者的研究领域,一方面又指本书的内容:凭借记忆写出的人生自传。 说起脑科学,在数年前差点和它结下缘分。当时在研究生入学选择时有几个可能的去处,其中之一是中科院脑认知科学研究所(似...
