N2  - Some metaphysical aspects concerned with the mind-body problem are approached in these theoretical studies involving the new neuronal materialism. Considering the biological materialism criteria and the role of the computer metaphor in understanding the mind, the thinking brain and the mind which is able to think of itself may both be considered attributes of being which are frequently beyond the grasp of reductive hermeneutics. The functional relationships which arise between brain and mind may be deciphered through the network of affective dynamics, yet the concept of psychophysiology can never entirely cover biological monism or the parallel concept of physiological psychology. Although the potential manifestation of adaptive behavior is contained in the causality vectors of nervous tissue, brain tissue does not, however, contain the manifestation of thought in its functional virtuality. Exploring the inner syntax of mental life involved in the normal or abnormal thought can shed a new light on the epistemological status of psychophysiology within the Human Sciences as well as on certain theoretical levels of cognitive neuroscience concerned by the concepts of mind
