Hardcover. Condition: Good. [From the library of noted scholar William E. Connolly.] Hardcover and dust jacket. Good binding and cover. Shelf wear. Scattered underlining and markings by Connolly. xxii, 298 pages : illustrations ; 26 cm. "William E. Connolly is Krieger-Eisenhower Professor in the political science department at Hopkins where he teaches political theory. His early book, The Terms of Political Discourse, was awarded the Benjamin Lippincott Award in 1999 as 'a work of exceptional quality that is still considered significant at least 15 years after publication.' In a poll of American political theorists published in PS in 2010, he was ranked the fourth most influential political theorist in America over the last twenty years, after Rawls, Habermas, and Foucault. His work focuses on the issues of democratic pluralism, capitalism, inequality, fascism, and bumpy intersections between capitalism and planetary amplifiers in climate change." - Johns Hopkins University.

Condition: Wie neu. 1. Auflage. 297 S. Sehr gut erhalten. - Inhalt: Vorwort von Stephen M. Kosslyn -- Einführung in das Problem -- Die zeitliche Verzögerung unseres sensorischen Bewusstseins -- Unbewusste und bewusste geistige Funktionen -- Handlungsabsicht: Haben wir einen freien Willen ? -- Die Theorie des bewussten mentalen Feldes: Wie aus dem Körper Geist entsteht -- Was bedeutet das alles? - Fast nichts ist uns Menschen so wichtig wie unser subjektives, bewußtes Innenleben und doch wissen wir relativ wenig über seine Genese. Benjamin Libet gehört zu den Pionieren auf dem Gebiet der Bewußtseinsforschung und hat zahlreiche Experimente durchgeführt, die gezeigt haben, wie das Gehirn Bewußtsein produziert. In seinem 2004 erschienenen und jetzt auf deutsch vorliegenden Buch Mind Time präsentiert er erstmals eine eigene Deutung seiner berühmten »Libet-Experimente«, die die aktuelle Debatte über die Bedeutung der Hirnforschung für unser Menschenbild überhaupt erst angestoßen haben. Im Zentrum der Experimente steht der Nachweis, daß jedem bewußten Prozeß ein unbewußter, jedoch meßbarer Prozeß zeitlich vorausgeht. Diese zeitliche Differenz die Mind Time läßt den Schluß zu, daß unbewußte Prozesse in unserem Gehirn unser Bewußtsein steuern und nicht umgekehrt das Bewußtsein »Herr im Haus« ist. Die vermeintlichen freien Willensakte etwa sind längst initiiert, bevor uns ein Handlungswunsch überhaupt gegenwärtig ist. Libet behandelt die weitreichenden Folgen seiner Entdeckung nicht nur für die Willensfreiheit, sondern auch für die Identität der Person und die Beziehung zwischen Geist und Gehirn. Klar und verständlich dargestellt, ermöglichen Libets Experimente und Theorien es sowohl Spezialisten als auch interessierten Laien, an einem der spannendsten Forschungsprogramme dieser Tage teilzuhaben der Erforschung des menschlichen Bewußtseins.

Add to basketSan Francisco, 19.V.1952, 2 pp. Quart, mit Briefkopf "University of Claifornia, Medical School, The Medical Center, San Francisco 22, California" und anderen Beilagen. Benjamin Libet (1916-2007) was an American neuroscientist who was a pioneer in the field of human consciousness. Libet was a researcher in the physiology department of the University of California, San Francisco. In 2003, he was the first recipient of the Virtual Nobel Prize in Psychology from the University of Klagenfurt "for his pioneering achievements in the experimental investigation of consciousness, initiation of action, and free will". In this detailed and technical letter, Benjamin Libert writes to the American neurologist and later neurosurgeon Bertram Feinstein (1914-1978) and reports on the progress of their working group 'Biomechaniqs Group, University of California' and sends him a special print of a jointly written paper 'Human Electromyogram' and several photos 'Flexor carpi ulnaris muscle' and the associated 'Legends'. Enclosures: Offprint; 3 x 2 photographic prints and the corresponding legends; envelope with address and sender and postmark dated May 20'52. "Dear Bert - Well here finaslly is a figure on the nerve cutting experiment - 3 copies. ." "In San Francisco I had joined the "Biomechanics Laboratory" on my arrival in July 1949. This group was engaged in a massive team effort to measure the mechanics, muscle physiology, and energy demands in human locomotion in normal and amputee subjects. The effort was led by Verne Inman, a professor of orthopedic surgery, and Howard Eberhart, a professor of engineering at the University of California, Berkeley, and it produced some extraordinary quantitative reports. I teamed up with Bertram Feinstein, then a neurologist, to study the human electromyogram in the context of the group's interest. In that work we established a role for tendon organ inhibition in strong muscle actions (Libet et al., 1959)." Benjamin Libet (pp. 414-453). In: The History of Neuroscience in Autobiography Volume 1.
