《视觉大革命:颠覆人类观念的视觉大发现》内容简介：每个人的眼睛真的拥有超能力，具备读心术、透视以及感知未来的功能？你相信自己的皮肤本质上都是无色,却能变化出任何颜色的全彩显示器吗？

一股新的研究浪潮正改变着我们对人类思维和大脑的认识。许多基础教育领域已要求学生对认知神经科学具备基本的理解。不过，目前多数教科书都是为生物学专业的学生准备的，很少考虑心理学和其他相关专业的读者。本书意在填补这一空缺。 专为心理学、医学预科、教育不及神经科学本科生和研究生而写；采用易于理解的主题式写作方式，无需神经科学或生物学背景；章节设置循序渐进，可读性强，以简单漂亮的绘图作品构建大脑，令人印象深刻；每章结尾处附有思考题和绘图练习，帮助加深理解。

This is the most authoritative introduction to the brain, its structure, function, development, and control of behavior available today. It presents both a comprehensive summary of the state of the science and a full discussion of historical issues in the study of the brain. Neuroanatomy, cell and molecular mechanisms, mechanisms, of signaling, and development are thoroughly described in the context of the cognitive approaches to behavior. Thoroughly revised, with a new full-color art program, this text was re-designed to be more user friendly. Also featured is an expanded treatment of the development of the nervous system, the genetic basis of neurological and psychiatric diseases, the cognitive neuroscience of perception, and icon channel mechanisms.

Presents the concept of mindful learning, that is the continuous creation of new categories, openness to new information, & an implicit awareness of more than one perspective. Paper. DLC: Learning.

Drawing on strange and thought-provoking case studies, an eminent neurologist offers unprecedented insight into the evolution of the uniquely human brain.V. S. Ramachandran is at the forefront of his field-so much so that Richard Dawkins dubbed him the "Marco Polo of neuroscience." Now, in a major new work, Ramachandran sets his sights on the mystery of human uniqueness. Taking us to the frontiers of neurology, he reveals what baffling and extreme case studies can teach us about normal brain function and how it evolved. Synesthesia becomes a window into the brain mechanisms that make some of us more creative than others. And autism—for which Ramachandran opens a new direction for treatment—gives us a glimpse of the aspect of being human that we understand least: self-awareness. Ramachandran tackles the most exciting and controversial topics in neurology with a storyteller's eye for compelling case studies and a researcher's flair for new approaches to age-old questions. Tracing the strange links between neurology and behavior, this book unveils a wealth of clues into the deepest mysteries of the human brain. 15 black-and-white illustrations
