Summary
¿Es posible leer la mente de alguien?
¿Qué es y cómo nos gobierna el inconsciente?
¿Qué hace que confiemos (o no) en los otros?
¿Por qué creemos que aprender un nuevo idioma es mucho más difícil para un adulto que para un niño?
¿Es cierto que nuestro cerebro es plástico y que nunca es demasiado tarde para aprender?
Mariano Sigman responde estas y muchas otras preguntas de la mano de la neurociencia y de la psicología experimental, y conduce un viaje a lo más íntimo del cerebro humano en el que recorre todos los recovecos de nuestra mente para entender qué define nuestra identidad, cómo forjamos ideas en nuestros primeros días de vida, cómo soñamos e imaginamos, por qué sentimos ciertas emociones, cómo aprendemos, y cómo olvidamos. Ciencia aplicada a la vida cotidiana para entender(nos) mejor.
Todo lo que siempre te preguntaste sobre tu mente -y todo lo que ni siquiera imaginaste que podrías preguntarte-, en el libro que tu cerebro espera leer.
ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
From one of the world's leading neuroscientists comes a deeply engaging trip into the depths of the human mind.
In The Secret Life of the Mind, neuroscientist Mariano Sigman offers a grand yet concise survey of everything you ever wanted to know about how the mind works.
From research showing that, even as infants, we are able to form notions of mathematics, language, and morality, to how years and years of formal and informal education can fundamentally change our brains and how we experience the world, The Secret Life of the Mind is an accessible and fascinating overview of neuroscience that will help readers begin to understand even the smallest things that make us who we are.Personal, surprising, and delightfully illuminating,
The Secret Life of the Mind is an intimate look into our most intimate selves.
