Inside your head there is an amazing labor saving device; more effective than the latest high-tech computer. Your brain frees you from the everyday tasks of moving about in the world around you, allowing you to concentrate on the things that are important to you; making friends and influencing people. However, the 'you' that is released into this social world is also a construction of your brain. It is your brain that enables you to share your mental life with the people around you.
Making Up the Mind is the first accessible account of experimental studies showing how the brain creates our mental world. Using evidence from brain imaging, psychological experiments, and patient studies, Chris Frith, one of the world's leading neuroscientists, explores the relationship between the mind and the brain.
From Wikipedia:
Professor Chris Frith FRS, FBA (born March 16, 1942, United Kingdom - ) is an Emeritus Professor at the Wellcome Trust Centre for Neuroimaging at University College London and a Niels Bohr Visiting Professor at the University of Aarhus, Denmark. His primary interest is in the applications of functional brain imaging to the study of higher cognitive functions in humans, although he is also well known for his earlier seminal work characterising the cognitive basis of schizophrenia.
With over 400 publications, Frith is one of the ISI Highly Cited authors in Neuroscience. His H-index is 117. He is author of a number of important neuroscience books, including the classic The Cognitive Neuropsychology of Schizophrenia (1992) and the popular science book Making up the Mind (2007) which achieved the long list for the Royal Society Science Book Award in 2008. He is a Fellow of the Royal Society, the British Academy and of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. In 2009 ha was awarded the Fyssen Foundation Prize for his work on neuropsychology [1] and he and Uta Frith were awarded the European Latsis Prize for their work linking the human mind and the human brain] [2].
Chris is the brother of Fred Frith, the guitarist, and Simon Frith, the musicologist. He is also the husband of Uta Frith, a leading developmental psychologist.
Since 2005, Chris has been on the editorial board of Biology Letters, dealing with papers in the category, Neurobiology.

评分This is a book about how our brain works. Our minds are so full of hallucinations and delusions. Our perception of the world is a fantasy coincides with reality,
评分文笔很有趣,内容引人入胜,注解很好玩。我对I and my brain的认识因为此书有一些改变,unconsciousness的力量远比想象中强大得多
评分Too simple (and jokes are not funny thanks)! Bayesian model in the brain is the only interesting part. ps, damaged brains do very scaring things... sigh...
评分作者这样一个大牛,构思了一个超级有趣的八卦科普小品文。看到“I find myself, somewhat to my surprise, sitting next to the professor of English”,笑爆了!2012.8.20,第一本看完的英文书。
这是我的神经学入门书,我还没读过其他的专业著作。我作为后生晚辈就不谈这本书中内容的正确与否了,谈谈个人看法。这是一本非常流畅而又结构严谨的书。这本书没有我看过的其他科学书籍那般用词晦涩深奥难懂,却又一种与作者一同探索大脑的刺激。作者的语言通俗幽默,和费曼先...
评分喜欢这种用实验,故事,数据进行叙述的书。我们善于联想,总是试图归纳看到的事物背后的规律,即使对随机事件也本能的倾向于此。思维的进化在某种程度上类似于贝叶斯模型,起初可能并不精确,随着观察和理解的深入,逐渐提高精度。但这不是自然而然的结果,如果意识不到这是个...
评分读此书还是冲着汪丁丁的推荐去的。 书的内容不知是作者有意取舍,还是资料较老,大多数都是已经知道的。信息感与新知启发均较为缺缺。 作者此书的写法也是针对普通读者,对阅读期待较高的我而言,落差较大。 当然其中的实验性证据还是比较重要。 总之,阅读体验平平。
评分从去年开始看的,终于在今天看完,偶也! 最大的感受: 1)内容详实精彩,例子非常丰富(尤其是schizophrenia和synesthesia相关的),让人大开眼界。 2)作者讲述地非常清晰,一层一层深入的剖析很严谨,我个人感觉没有一个问题是他没讲清楚的,而且讲东西的韵律基本保持一...
评分07年的书,Eric Kandel的《追寻的记忆》都出来了,这本还不出来。Eric Kandel的《追寻的记忆》在Amazon上N多人好评,这本书...只有五个人打分(不过全是五星)。书的推荐序里面就有Eric Kandel写的推荐。 总的来说: 作者很牛逼(自己到wikipedia上查);讲解很通俗;内容很有...
