摘要
著名神经科学家埃德尔曼和托诺尼对以“世界之结”著称的意识问题作出了新的分析和梳理,从而使“谜团”转化成了既适合于哲学探讨,又有可能从科学上加以研究的清晰问题。基于大量实证研究,他们提出了再进入、动态核心、神经元群选择理论等新的范畴和解释模型,对意识的相关难题作出了新的解答,既否定了传统的二元论和极端的还原论,又得出了人无心、大脑活动无中心等新颖而耐人寻思的结论。
The famous nerve scientists Gerald M. Edelman and Giulio Tononi make a new analysis and generalization to the problem of consciousness that is noted as a world enigma. They develop the enigma into a subject that is not only fit for philosophical exploration but also for scientific research. On the basis of much empirical research, they put forward new theoretical categories such as Reentry, the Reentrant Dynamic Core, Theory of Neuronal Group Selection and offers some interpretative patterns at the same time, which make a new explanation to the relevant enigmas that are concerned with consciousness. That not only negates the conventional theories of dualism and reductionism but also helps us draw some thought-provoking conclusions such as people without mind and cerebral activities without center.
