"Why did the brain create the mind?" was an amazing masterpiece!!
Today, I started off at Nishinomiya in the morning, then at a site in Nishi Ward, Kobe.
After visiting the sites in Otsu Ward, Himeji City and Tadera Higashi, Himeji City
We returned to the office and had our first presentation of the house for T-san's mother, which we had designed a few years ago.
It was a very hard schedule day.
Moreover, on Thursday I had three meetings, including a contract and handover meeting.
Two meetings on Friday
We will be signing another contract tomorrow, which means we will have 11 site visits and meetings over the next four days.
It feels like the rush just before flying to the Philippines.
In the midst of all this, I recently read a book that really resonated with me.
I would like to introduce you.
Takashi Maeno is a Japanese professor at Keio University, and is currently working on a relatively new project called "Happiness Studies."
He is one of the best teachers in the field of academics.
I first learned about this person when he appeared as a Japanese commentator on the NHK program Happiness Studies.
That was the trigger. So I searched for his works.
The Mechanism of Happiness: An Introduction to Practical Happiness Studies (Kodansha Gendai Shinsho)
I found a book called "The Best of the Best." It was a book that summarized what was on TV, but it was good content in its own way.
However, I thought it was just "normally good" and didn't feel like it was dramatically better.
While reading the book, I found myself thinking, "For more details, please see my book.Why did the brain create the mind?Please read the
That's how I came across this book.
This book was written in 2004, so it's already 10 years old.
Although "neuroscience" is a field that has been developing rapidly recently, I have not read as many books on neuroscience as this one.
I have never come across a book that just suddenly clicked with me.
Speaking of brain science, Kenichiro Mogi is one of the most well-known figures, but in this book Maeno criticizes Mogi.
However, in his book, Mogi calls this book by Maeno a "masterpiece."
I'm raving about it. This relationship alone is interesting enough.
After reading this book, I realized that I could not understand any other books on philosophy, religion, or neuroscience that I had read before.
What is “I”?
What is the purpose of the "I"?
After you move your finger, your brain sends the command "move your finger." (A fact that is recognized worldwide.)
There are many little people in the brain called the unconscious. These little people are the main players.
Do animals have minds? (It is assumed that only mammals and birds can be said to have minds.)
The truth about near-death experiences
And so on. You probably won't understand what this introduction is all about, but
It's really interesting, and it has lots of illustrations and very good analogies, so it's a very easy to understand book.
I highly recommend you give it a read. I also have another book that I'm about to finish that is also very interesting.
I would like to introduce that to you soon as well.
