The author, a reductionist, supposes that isn´t, say, you who learn maths, but your brain organ does. He also assumes that psyches don´t exist save as a part of the brain; that psyches aren´t semovient (i.e., able to start new causal series) but only sensitive; that people boil down to complexified reflex archs, i.e. senso-psycho-motor nervous archs; that psyches emerge from brain activity, personal identity is remembering, and memories are somehow engraved in the brain (the Aeschylus-Plato theory of mnesic traces as imprints in brain´s "wax", like Aeschylus´footprint on the beach and Semon´s 1890s "engram"). Author does also confuse mind and psyche - i.e., mind (a psyche´s set of inner differentiations, achieved on active, causal efficient experience of the envirtonmental circumstances) and the psyche wherein that mind unbarterably inheres. Thus this book provides before all a political message: people are robots, individuals have slight or no value, solidarity and compassionate appreciation are ungrounded. For synoptic, alternative neuroscientific discussion and context in this same Library Genesis, see, e.g., pages 313 to 393 (Chptrs. 11 by Mariela Szirko and 12 by Mario Crocco) in: Ontology of Consciousness Percipient Action / edited by Helmut Wautischer: The MIT Press-Bradford Books, 2008, in: http://libgen.io/get.php?md5=8562D716817C4939AA987EAA94A81449&key=BNAIL1FQW6C5SW8Y LibGen ID 541045; see also ID 1485841 and (in Spanish), ID 1201494 and ID 1530460.

Reductionist approach. Author supposes that isn´t you that learns it, but your brain organ does. It also assumes that psyches don´t exist save as a part of the brain; that psyches aren´t semovient (i.e., able to start new causal series) but only sensitive; that people are complexified reflex archs, i.e. senso-psycho-motor nervous archs; that psyches emerge from brain activity. Also confuses mind (a psyche´s inner differentiation, achieved on active, causal efficient experience) and the psyche wherein that mind unbarterably inheres. Thus this book provides before all a political message: people are robots, individual have slight or no value.
