這種書用audiobook簡直太不閤適瞭。圖書館的書到手,手工照書畫瞭幾幅圖,仔細查瞭字典,清楚瞭許多許多。不過發現用中文學英文的術語是音譯或者翻譯的頗勉強,有些脫離瞭詞根什麼的,反而完全沒辦法記。應該在讀其他腦科學的書之前先讀這個入門的。sigh.

評分You brain is just a piece of shit
評分The brain is like an ice cream cone with new scoops piled on at each stage of our linage. It is a kludge from accidental design. The prefrontal cortex which is hub of cognitive thinking is of very limited functions, our memory is usually misattributed, biased and often twisted by emotions...所以不能完全相信自己的大腦,因為它經常”自欺欺人”
戴維·J·林登(David J.Linden)是美國約翰·霍普金斯大學醫學院教授、神經科學傢,對小腦突觸可塑性有專門的研究。
The brain, that "cobbled-together mess," is the subject of this lively mix of solid science and fascinating case histories. Linden, a neuroscientist from Johns Hopkins University, offers "the Reader's Digest version" of how the brain functions, followed quickly by the "real biology," before tackling the big questions: Why are people religious? How do we form memories? What makes sleep so vital to mental health? Which is more important, nature or nurture? Linden tackles these problems head on, debunking myths (people do, in fact, use more than 10 percent of their brains) and offering interesting trivia (Einstein's brain was a bit on the small side) along the way. Anti-evolutionary arguments are answered in a chapter titled "The Unintelligent Design of the Brain," in which Linden proposes that it's the brain's "weird agglomeration of ad hoc solutions" that makes humans unique. The book's greatest strength is Linden's knack for demystifying biology and neuroscience with vivid similes (he calls the brain, weighing two percent of total body weight and using 20 percent of its energy, the "Hummer H2 of the body"). Though packed with textbook-ready data, the book grips readers like a masterful teacher; those with little science experience may be surprised to find themselves interested in-and even chuckling over-the migration of neurons along radial glia, and anxious to find out what happens next.
林登从演化的角度来解释我们人类大脑是如何渐渐变成这么大一坨,并让人变成了自然界主宰的。 他使用的比喻非常有意思,把大脑的演化看成是一勺一勺叠放在冰淇淋蛋卷上的冰淇淋球,根据这个,我制作了一副图,可以形象地说明大脑的演化过程。 最里面的脑干部分,是我们包括人类...
評分 評分 評分这是个大科学家写的面向公众的科普书,可谓深入浅出,知识系统丰富,翻译准确生动,还阐明了很多公众对大脑的误解。除了一些离子通道,谷氨酸受体,REM睡眠之类的东西,大部分内容是有趣并且易懂的。 从书名就可以看出,作者是要反驳神创论和智能设计论的。证据绝对充分...
評分这本科学普及读物如此通俗易懂,却又发人审醒。 我们对于大脑的认识,甚至一些坚信不宜的知识,很多都是错误的。逐渐地,大脑被我们神话了,像一个拥有未知力量的宝藏。 如今,是时候揭开这层面纱,透过乱生的头发和粘粘的脑组织,睹一睹庐山的真面目了。
