Synopsis

The study of the brain-mind complex has been hampered by the dichotomy between objective biological neuroscience and subjective psychological science, based on speculative topographic models and psychodynamics formulations. These antithetical avenues of research have evolved into a polarization of neuroscience, which is partly responsible for the failure to unravel the transformation of neural events into mental images: how matter becomes imagination, and vice versa. The Rosetta Stone of the Human Mind: Three Languages to Integrate Neurobiology and Psychology presents a new theoretical model "translating" between biological neuroscience principles and psychological science, using a third language: nonlinear physics and mathematics. Simultaneous use of the two approaches can enrich understanding of the neural and mental realms, and add new dimensions to our perception of neuropsychological events. Awareness and application of these perspectives can help in getting a deeper theoretical grasp on major mental events, better understanding single minds, and a more integrated therapeutic intervention.

À propos de l'auteur

​Vincenzo Sanguineti was born in Eritrea and lived there until completion of Medical School at the "Universita' Degli Studi" in Milan, Italy. He then spent five years in Nigeria, where he conducted published field research in Tropical Medicine and directed a missionary hospital. Consequently, he profited from the prolonged exposure to uncontaminated natural habitats and to the degrees of difference and similarity among different species, and different human cultures, which enhanced his fascination for the interaction between the unique subjectivity of the self and the interactive processes stemming from the profound complexity of the individual and collective variables participating to the phase-space of the mind. Such interests evolved into more programmatic research that generated various studies and formed the basis of his books: "Landscapes in my Mind," "The Rosetta Stone of the Human Mind," and his fictionalhistorical biography of Sarpedon, the mythical king of Lykia. Currently, Dr. Sanguineti is in private practice in Philadelphia, where he is Associate Professor in the Department of Psychiatry at Jefferson Medical Center, within the Sidney Kimmel Medical College.
