Chapter 1 examines the interpretation of studies on perception using the theme that "only human beings can know and perceive, not their brains" (p. 13); "the brain does not have a mind" (p. 13). Chapter 1 also criticises the concept of mental maps in the brain, mental rotation of objects in the brain and "the binding problem," which constitutes the "modularization of cellular functions in the neural processes involved in perception" (p. 32). Chapter 2 uses examples from Helmholtz, Broadbent, Weiskrantz, Triesman, and others to argue that "it is not the visual system that sees and discriminates, it is the human being, whose visual system endows him with the power of sight" (p. 63). In chapter 3, the research of Brenda Milner, LeDoux, Kandel, O'Keefe and Nadel, Bliss and others on memory ...

In a high-tech variation of "monkey see, monkey do," U.S. researchers have taught two macaques to feed themselves with a human-like robotic arm using only signals from their brains. Our immediate goal is to make a prosthetic device for people with total paralysis," said senior author Andrew Schwartz, a professor of neurobiology. "Ultimately, our goal is to better understand brain complexity. "The more we understand about the brain, the better we'll be able to treat a wide range of brain disorders, everything from Parkinson's disease and paralysis to, eventually, Alzheimer's disease and perhaps even mental illness."
Our study in mice does not mean that use of ultrasound on human fetuses for appropriate diagnostic and medical purposes should be abandoned," said Dr. Pasko Rakic, lead researcher and chairman of the neurobiology department at Yale University School of Medicine.

This paper reviews the current work on mouse genetics, brain, and behaviour in my laboratory. It starts with an historical account of our research and shows how certain research themes, such as olfaction, learning, social behaviour, and environmental effects in rodents have led to our current research on behavioural phenotyping of inbred, mutant, knockout, and transgenic mice. We are concerned with finding neural and behavioural sequelae to genetic manipulations in mice and use a battery of tests to detect behaviours that are altered in genetically modified mice. In this way we are working to dissociate neural and behavioural effects of different gene manipulations in mouse models of neurodegenerative diseases. Sensory, motor, cognitive, affective, and social behaviours may all be affec...

Marketing research is increasingly interested in people's perception- and affect-laden, identity-involving relationships to companies and their brands. However, little attention has been paid to (1) how, specifically, such identity relationships to companies will stem from identity relationships to various other things that are relevant to people and associated with companies. Besides, (2) the influences of such relationships to companies on various business-relevant behaviors of the individuals, let alone organizations which the individuals may represent, have not been examined in a comprehensive way. This article addresses the identified research gaps by presenting an integrative framework that introduces a special kind of identity relationship, termed affective self-affinity (ASA). ...
