Sommario/riassunto

Le Savoir et le Faire se veut le prolongement du thème central abordé dans le premier Cahier La pluralité des mondes : rapport entre diversité culturelle et pratique « unifiante » du développement économique. Le sujet est cette fois-ci développé sous un angle essentiellement méthodologique.  Qu’est-ce qu’une méthodologie sinon d’abord un examen de conscience des mécanismes d’approche et parallèlement



une découverte méthodique des liaisons, parfois cachées, entre l’ensemble des concepts et théories qui font l’objet de la recherche sur le « développement » et les facteurs de domination culturels et économiques ? Ainsi, un fil conducteur se dessine au travers des différentes contributions de ce Cahier : une réflexion rigoureuse sur la nécessité d’une critique des schèmes d’interprétation courants dans les sciences humaines et d’une recherche de méthodes d’évaluation de projets de développement qui tienne compte de choix culturels possibles.

Sommario/riassunto

In this provocative text, a noted neuroscientist reexamines Freud's



posthumously published  Project of Scientific Psychology in the light of modern neuroscience. This expanded "thermodynamics of the mind" model includes robust conceptions of the cellular and neural processes that accompany creation of consciousness and memory, their contributions to such conditions as depression, dissociative disorders, and schizophrenia, and implications for practice, from imaging to talk-based therapies to pharmacotherapy. Central to this construct is Freud's proposal of specific "omega" neurons as the most volatile carriers of consciousness between mind and brain, which is applied to current issues regarding complexity and executive functioning. In addition, the book is extensively referenced, allowing readers to investigate these and related phenomena in greater detail.   Among the topics covered:   Neural reductionism in Freud's "Project" and neuropsychoanalysis. Thermodynamics and brain self-organization. Conflicting information and the dissociated mind. The Cartesian model of the mind and the binding problem. Neuroendocrine and immune response to stress. The concept of omega neurons and modern chaos theory.   Rigorous, challenging, and occasionally startling, The Brain and Conscious Unity is a milestone in the neuroscience and mind/brain literature to be read and discussed by psychiatrists, psychologists, and neuropsychologists.
