Recenzii
Neuroethics is hot but also complicated and controversial. How can inquisitive non-specialists learn enough to understand this growing field? Joshua May has provided a perfect solution. Just read this book. May's overview is balanced and fair, stimulating and careful, profound and practical, concise and convincing
Joshua May has written the book we need: a comprehensive and persuasive examination of some of the most fascinating and significant issues that confront us today. Accessible without sacrificing careful argument, and filled with gripping case studies, it's an excellent introduction to neuroethics that is also a book that will be valuable to the specialist.
This is the book I have been seeking for my neuroethics course! Philosophy, pre-law, and science students alike will delight in May's real-life case studies and discussions of the brain science relevant to pressing philosophical problems. In the end, May encourages us to be suspicious of the idea that there are "neurotypical" versus "atypical" brains. Brains exist on a continuum: we ought to focus on our neurological similarities and not our differences.
Neuroethics explores complex concepts in a way that is accessible to students and non-experts. It is accompanied by online resources, including materials designed for undergraduate courses.
This is a crucial volume for those studying the philosophy of mind, ethics, neuroscience, cognitive science, psychiatry, and psychology.
