In Act 1 scene iv of Macbeth, Duncan reflects that: 'There's no art to find the mind's construction in the face'. In contrast, the claim that Andy Young sets out in this book is that we are now developing a science of face perception which can indeed shed light on certain aspects of mentallife. Face and Mind consists of a series of seminal research and review papers on face perception published by the author and his colleagues over the last 12 years. A comprehensive introductory chapter, written especially for this volume, serves to draw together the various themes explored in thedifferent contributions. The book examines the question of how faces are special, in terms of their social, biological, and theoretical roles. In particular, Face and Mind seeks to determine what our understanding of the face can tell us about the human brain. It discusses the evidence for anevolved neural substrate for face perception, and the question of whether we are innately predisposed to recognise faces, to find them attractive, and to decode the many social signals they give us. The ability of the human brain to process and remember the many different faces that we see andsubsequently recall is analysed. Young includes detailed studies of the types of impairment to face perception which can follow brain injury or psychiatric illness, and uses them to address these questions, as well as other issues of high intrinsic and interdisciplinary interest. These include theextent to which our mental lives result from the operation of discrete components devoted to different purposes, the differences between conscious and non-conscious processes, and how we use evidence to support our beliefs about the world. Because of the huge variety of social signals read from theface, it can offer unique theoretical and philosophical insights into these questions. This fascinating book will be of interest not only to psychologists and neuropsychologists working in the field of visual perception, but to cognitive scientists generally. It provides an excellent summary ofthe most important theorietical and empirical work done on face perception in recent years, and as such will be of interest to advanced undergraduate and post-graduate students in psychology, philosophy, and cognitive science.

In The Mind’s Eye, Oliver Sacks tells the stories of people who are able to navigate the world and communicate with others despite losing what many of us consider indispensable senses and abilities: the power of speech, the capacity to recognize faces, the sense of three-dimensional space, the ability to read, the sense of sight. For all of these people, the challenge is to adapt to a radically new way of being in the world. There is Lilian, a concert pianist who becomes unable to read music and is eventually unable even to recognize everyday objects, and Sue, a neurobiologist who has never seen in three dimensions, until she suddenly acquires stereoscopic vision in her fifties. There is Pat, who reinvents herself as a loving grandmother and active member of her community, despite the fact that she has aphasia and cannot utter a sentence, and Howard, a prolific novelist who must find a way to continue his life as a writer even after a stroke destroys his ability to read. And there is Dr. Sacks himself, who tells the story of his own eye cancer and the bizarre and disconcerting effects of losing vision to one side. Sacks explores some very strange paradoxes—people who can see perfectly well but cannot recognize their own children, and blind people who become hyper-visual or who navigate by “tongue vision.” He also considers more fundamental questions: How do we see? How do we think? How important is internal imagery—or vision, for that matter? Why is it that, although writing is only five thousand years old, humans have a universal, seemingly innate, potential for reading? The Mind’s Eye is a testament to the complexity of vision and the brain and to the power of creativity and adaptation. And it provides a whole new perspective on the power of language and communication, as we try to imagine what it is to see with another person’s eyes, or another person’s mind.

This book is a discussion of the most timely and contentious issues in the two branches of neuroethics: the neuroscience of ethics; and the ethics of neuroscience. Drawing upon recent work in psychiatry, neurology, and neurosurgery, it develops a phenomenologically inspired theory of neuroscience to explain the brain-mind relation. The idea that the mind is shaped not just by the brain but also by the body and how the human subject interacts with the environment has significant implications for free will, moral responsibility, and moral justification of actions. It also provides a better understanding of how different interventions in the brain can benefit or harm us. In addition, the book discusses brain imaging techniques to diagnose altered states of consciousness, deep-brain stimulation to treat neuropsychiatric disorders, and restorative neurosurgery for neurodegenerative diseases. It examines the medical and ethical trade-offs of these interventions in the brain when they produce both positive and negative physical and psychological effects, and how these trade-offs shape decisions by physicians and patients about whether to provide and undergo them.

Get ready for the read of your life. Never before has a single book combined awesome vans, unicorns, Billy Joel, and erotic fiction in such a potent combination. A writing tour de force? Perhaps. A reading experience that will sear itself into your consciousness like a red-hot branding iron? Without question. Comedian and basic cable superstar Michael Ian Black unleashes the full fury of his astonishing intellect in this collection of short comic essays. My Custom Van is a no-holds-barred assault to the funny bone that will literally beat you into submission with hilarity*. How did he do it? How did he create such a fine anthology? Answer: With love. Michael opened his heart and used the magical power of love to write more than fifty thought-provoking essays like, "Why I Used a Day-Glo Magic Marker to Color My Dick Yellow," and "An Open Letter to the Hair Stylist Who Somehow Convinced Me to Get a Perm When I Was in Sixth Grade." Maybe you think love is not a substitute for "good writing skills" and "spell check." Bull pucky! When it comes to writing books, love is the most powerful word processor of all. Sounds pretty great, right? And yet...something is still holding you back from paying the full purchase price of this book. What is it? Perhaps you secretly believe you do not deserve a book this good. Nonsense -- you deserve this book and so much more. In fact, if Michael could have written you all the stars in the sky, that's what he would have done. But he couldn't do that, due to his lack of knowledge in the area of astronomy. So he wrote this book instead. And this flap copy. Enjoy. * Michael Ian Black is not responsible for any actual injuries caused by reading this book.

BrainBook: Mind Reading & Face Reading Mind reading, the ability to understand someone's thoughts, emotions, and intentions, has been a subject of fascination for centuries. It is often depicted in science fiction movies and novels, but in reality, it is a complex process that involves understanding body language, non-verbal cues, and social context. Mind reading can be a valuable skill in various settings, including personal relationships, business negotiations, and therapy sessions. The face is a window to the soul, and it can reveal a lot about a person's personality, emotions, and health. Face reading, also known as physiognomy or facial profiling, is an ancient practice that has been used for thousands of years to interpret the various features of a person's face. In this book, we will explore the art of Mind reading and Face reading, its history, and how it can be used to gain insights into a person's character and well-being. Mind Reading & Face Reading The ability to read someone's mind or face has long been a topic of fascination for many people. While mind reading and face reading are not supernatural abilities, they are skills that require practice and attention to detail. In this article, we will explore the concepts of mind reading and face reading, how they work, and how they can be applied in everyday life. Mind Reading: Mind reading, also known as telepathy, is the ability to read another person's thoughts or emotions without any verbal communication. While many people believe that mind reading is a supernatural ability, it is actually a skill that can be learned through practice and observation. One of the key components of mind reading is being able to read body language. Body language can reveal a lot about a person's thoughts and emotions. For example, if someone is fidgeting, they may be nervous or uncomfortable. If someone is avoiding eye contact, they may be hiding something or feeling guilty. Another important aspect of mind reading is being able to read facial expressions. Facial expressions can reveal a lot about a person's emotional state. For example, a smile can indicate happiness or friendliness, while a frown can indicate sadness or anger. To become proficient at mind reading, it is important to practice observing people and their behavior. Pay attention to body language, facial expressions, and tone of voice. Try to identify patterns and use this information to make predictions about what someone might be thinking or feeling. Face Reading: Face reading, also known as physiognomy, is the practice of interpreting a person's facial features to determine their character or personality traits. While face reading is often dismissed as pseudoscience, there is evidence to suggest that facial features can be an indicator of a person's personality. One of the key principles of face reading is that different facial features are associated with different personality traits. For example, a broad forehead is associated with intelligence, while a narrow forehead is associated with creativity. A large nose is associated with ambition, while a small nose is associated with sensitivity. Another important aspect of face reading is understanding the significance of different facial expressions. For example, a raised eyebrow can indicate surprise or skepticism, while a furrowed brow can indicate anger or frustration. To become proficient at face reading, it is important to study the different facial features and their associated personality traits. It is also important to practice observing people and their facial expressions to gain a better understanding of their emotional state. Applications in Everyday Life: Mind reading and face reading can be useful skills in a variety of settings. For example
