EL FENÓMENO LITERARIO DE LOS ÚLTIMOS AÑOS

Vuelve el tándem más exitoso para abordar el mayor misterio de la naturaleza humana: nuestro cerebro

«El cerebro vive en un cuarto oscuro .

«Tal es el gran misterio al que nos enfrentamos , afirma Arsuaga en este libro en el que el sapiens y el neandertal afrontan el mayor desafío de su proyecto en común, el más complejo, el que supone abrir una puerta a lo ignorado. Vivimos con la paradoja de que, pese a los avances de la neurociencia en los últimos años, el cerebro, que rige nuestra conexión con el mundo, continúa siendo el gran desconocido.

La identidad, la inteligencia la natural y la artificial y la memoria, así como las condiciones para que saltara la chispa y surgiera la conciencia que nos distingue a los humanos del resto de las especies constituyen las tramas de este libro, todas ellas atravesadas por la sabiduría y el humor, y por el eje narrativo de la singular relación entre el científico y el novelista.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

THE CONTINUATION OF A LITERARY PHENOMENON

The successful duo returns to tackle the greatest mystery of human nature: our brains.

"Our minds live in a dark room."

"This is the great mystery we face," Arsuaga notes in this dialogue between the Sapiens and the Neanderthal about the most challenging part of their joint project, the most complex, and which involves opening a door to the unknown. Because humans live with the paradox: Despite the strides made by neuroscience in our lifetimes, our brain - which govern our connections to the outside world - remain an enigma.

Identity, intelligence - innate and artificial - memory, the spark of consciousness that sets humans apart from the other species: These are some of the topics addressed in this book, approached with wisdom and humor and mediated by the relationship between scientist and novelist.
