Neurosciences and the Mind: Risks and Consequences of a Misunderstanding
Type de matériel :
TexteLangue : français Détails de publication : 2008.
Sujet(s) : Ressources en ligne : Abrégé : The supposed links between neurosciences and the mind are based on a misunderstanding involving risks and severe consequences. After an introduction focused on the birth of the concept of neurosciences and its valuable development in neurology, we will trace the wave of purely biological references that took over the field of psychiatry, which privileged brain imaging, psychotropic drugs, and neuro-cognition. “Neuroscientism”—a totalitarian ideology which claims to represent the neurosciences—limits the human mind to the brain only. The consequences of the misunderstanding are very large as any reference to the mind is strongly excluded from teaching, paradigms, and treatments in clinical psychiatry.
