From Brain Dynamics to the Mind: Spatiotemporal Neuroscience explores how the self and consciousness is related to neural events. It begins with an exploration of existing models used to describe the mind/brain problem, followed by recent research on brain mechanisms and processes and what they tell us about the self, consciousness, and psychiatric disorders. It presents a spatiotemporal approach to understanding the brain and the implications for artificial intelligence, novel therapies for psychiatric disorders, and for ethical, societal, and philosophical issues. Pulling concepts from neuroscience, psychology, and philosophy, the book present a modern and complete look at what we know, what we can surmise, and what we may never know about the distinction between brain and mind.
