THE HUMAN SCIENCES AFTER THE DECADE OF THE BRAI...

The Human Sciences after the Decade of the Brain brings together exciting new works that
address today's key challenges for a mutual interaction between cognitive neuroscience and the
social sciences and humanities. Taking up the methodological and conceptual problems of
choosing a neuroscience approach to disciplines such as philosophy  history  ethics and
education  the book deepens discussions on a range of epistemological  historical  and
sociological questions about the neuro-turn in the new millennium. The book's three sections
focus on (i) epistemological questions posed by neurobiologically informed approaches to
philosophy and history  (ii) neuroscience's influence on explanations for social and moral
behavior  and (iii) the consequences of the neuro-turn in diverse sectors of social life such
as science  education  film  and human self-understanding. This book is an important resource
both for students and scholars of cognitive neuroscience and biological psychology interested
in the philosophical  ethical  and societal influences of-and on-their work as well as for
students and scholars from the social sciences and humanities interested in neuroscience.
