Résumé
In Brain Wars, acclaimed neuroscientist Mario Beauregard reveals compelling new evidence set to provoke a major shift in our understanding of the mind-body debate: research showing that the mind and consciousness are transmitted and filtered through the brain-but are not generated by it. Following his boundary-breaking neuroscience book The Spiritual Brain: A Neuroscientist's Case for the Existence of the Soul, coauthored with Denyse O'Leary, Brain Wars makes a powerful and provocative case against the widely held view equating human beings to complex biological computers.
Like Jeffrey M. Schwartz, Beauregard believes that consciousness is more than simply a physical process that takes place in the brain. And here, he presents the evidence to prove it. Brain Wars will revolutionize the way we think about thinking forever. Drawing on a wealth of scientific studies, Brain Wars EPB dismantles the materialist worldview by exploring: Neuroplasticity: Discover how mental training-from meditation to neurofeedback-can physically reshape your brain's structure and function, proving that the mind you have is the one you build.
Parapsychology: Examine the government's own top-secret research into psi phenomena like remote viewing and telepathy, and what it reveals about the non-local nature of consciousness. Consciousness Beyond the Brain: Confront the ultimate question with verified accounts of out-of-body and near-death experiences, where lucid awareness persists even when the brain is clinically inactive. The Science of Mystical Experience: Go inside the brain scans of meditating nuns and others in states of mystical union to see the neural correlates of spiritual encounters and what they tell us about reality.
Quantum Physics and the Mind: See how the strange world of quantum mechanics challenges the "computer made of meat" model and opens the door to a new science where consciousness is fundamental.
