Neuro : the new brain sciences and the management of the mind / Nikolas Rose and Joelle M. Abi-Rached. - Princeton : Princeton University Press, (c)2013. - 1 online resource
Includes bibliographies and index.
The neuromolecular brain -- The visible invisible -- What's wrong with their mice? -- All in the brain? -- The social brain -- The antisocial brain -- Personhood in a neurobiological age -- Managing brains, minds, and selves.
The brain sciences are influencing our understanding of human behavior as never before, from neuropsychiatry and neuroeconomics to neurotheology and neuroaesthetics. Many now believe that the brain is what makes us human, and it seems that neuroscientists are poised to become the new experts in the management of human conduct. Neuro describes the key developments--theoretical, technological, economic, and biopolitical--that have enabled the neurosciences to gain such traction outside the laboratory. It explores the ways neurobiological conceptions of personhood are influencing everything from child rearing to criminal justice, and are transforming the ways we "know ourselves" as human beings.
