As the basic building block of the nervous system, a thorough understanding of the neuron is crucial for any level of analysis. This text provides the solid foundation of the morphological, biochemical, and biophysical properties of nerve cells that is needed by advanced undergraduates and graduate students, as well as researchers in need of a thorough reference. * Highly referenced for readers to pursue topics of interest in greater detail * Unique coverage of the application of mathematical modeling and simulation approaches not found in other textbooks * Richly illustrated, four color presentation throughout * Includes CD-ROM of all of the illustrations.

Gevoelens als vreugde, verdriet, jaloezie en angst zijn onlosmakelijk verbonden met ons bestaan. Antonio Damasio toont aan dat ze zelfs essentieel zijn voor rationeel gedrag. Dankzij zijn jarenlange ervaring met patiënten met hersenbeschadigingen kan hij laten zien waarom gevoelens en de onderliggende emoties van vitaal belang zijn om culturele prestaties te leveren – ja, zelfs om in leven te blijven.In zijn eerder verschenen De vergissing van Descartes rekende Damasio af met het eeuwenoude idee van de scheiding tussen lichaam en geest. In Het gelijk van Spinoza gaat hij een stap verder en werpt hij een nieuw licht op de filosofie van Spinoza, die lichaam en geest zag als een samenhangende eenheid, en rationaliteit, emoties en gevoelens intuïtief beschouwde op een wijze die pas door de moderne neurologie kon worden aangetoond.

Research on the evolution of higher intelligence rarely combines data from fields as diverse as paleontology and psychology. In this volume we seek to do just that, synthesizing the approaches of hominoid cognition, psychology, language studies, ecology, evolution, paleoecology and systematics toward an understanding of great ape intelligence. Leading scholars from all these fields have been asked to evaluate the manner in which each of their topics of research inform our understanding of the evolution of intelligence in great apes and humans. The ideas thus assembled represent a comprehensive survey of the various causes and consequences of cognitive evolution in great apes. The Evolution of Thought will therefore be an essential reference for graduate students and researchers in evolutionary psychology, paleoanthropology and primatology.
