Description
Bringing together contributors working on a common problem but addressing different
levels of brain organization by way of different techniques, The Mind-Brain Continuum seeks to
determine which scientific questions are most pressing as we move toward discovering the
neurobiology of psychological processes. As the title implies, contributions are organized around
the notion that mental activity is brain activity, providing a broad, integrated view of a
particular subset of brain function. The focus is on sensory perception, processes that include
somatosensory, auditory, and olfactory processes, as well research on vision.Contributors include:
Albert S. Bregman. Patricia S. Churchland. Martha Constantine-Paton. Antonio R. Damasio. Hannah
Damasio. Howard Eichenbaum. Rodolfo R. Lliná³® Nikos K. Logothetis. Christoph von deMalsburg.
Stephen E. McAdams. Michael M. Merzenich. Vilayanur S. Ramachandran. John A. Simmons. Wolf
Singer.
