• Sommario/riassunto: This book addresses the issue of trauma and psychic wounds to stage a confrontation between psychoanalysis and contemporary neurobiology. In so doing, it reevaluates the brain as an organ that is not separated from psychic life but rather appears as its very locus. A philosophical approach of the Gnew woundedG (brain lesion patients) forms the matter of the confrontation.
