He shows how joy and sorrow are cornerstones of our survival. As he investigates the cerebral mechanisms behind emotions and feelings, Damasio argues that the internal regulatory processes not only preserve life within ourselves, but they create, motivate, and even shape our greatest cultural accomplishments.\u003cbr\u003e If Descartes declared a split between mind and body, Spinoza not only unified the two but intuitively understood the role of emotions in human survival and culture. So it is Spinoza who accompanies Damasio as he journeys back to the seventeenth century in search of a philosopher who, in Damasio's view, prefigured modern neuroscience.\u003cbr\u003e In \"Looking for Spinoza\" Damasio brings us closer to understanding the delicate interaction between affect, consciousness, and memory--the processes that both keep us alive and make life worth living.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Harcourt","offers":[{"title":"Looking for Spinoza: Joy, Sorrow, and the Feeling Brain | Antonio R Damasio | Hardcover | 9780151005574 | Used: Like New | Psychology 1584974","offer_id":48429367722136,"sku":"1584974","price":7.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/81h-7MonLpL.jpg?v=1773349918","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/looking-for-spinoza-joy-sorrow-and-the-feeling-brain","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
