Critical Neuroscience

Abstract

Critical Neuroscience brings together multi-disciplinary scholars from around the world to explore key social, historical and philosophical studies of neuroscience, and to analyze the socio-cultural implications of recent advances in the field. Original, interdisciplinary approach explores the creative potential for engaging experimental neuroscience with social studies of neuroscience Furthers the dialogue between neuroscience and the disciplines of the social sciences and humanities Transcends traditional scepticism, introducing novel ideas about ‘how to be critical’ in and about science Features contributions from eminent scholars including Steven Rose, Joseph Dumit, Laurence Kirmayer, Shaun Gallagher, Fernando Vidal, Allan Young and Joan Chiao
