- Synopsis
- We have known for over a thousand years that the brain underlies behavioral expression, but effective scientific study of the brain is only very recent. In Pragmatism and the Search for Coherence in Neuroscience, two things converge: a great respect for neuroscience and its many variations, and a sense of investigation and inquiry demythologized. Schulkin seeks to anchor inquiry about neuroscience to objects and adaptation, whilst also showing that neuroscience is symbolic of the very Socratic idea to 'know thyself,' as the brain is that very organ that renders such knowledge possible. Think of it as foraging for coherence.
