Description: Understanding the brain and the biological basis of mind, consciousness and behaviour is the ultimate challenge. The neurosciences, through increasing sophisticated technology, provide fascinating insights into human cognition, emotions and sociality. It this the imminent advent of a definitive undestanding of our mental apparatus, or the warning of a brave new world of manipulation, mind reading and thought control? Are we witness to a new chapter in human evolution?
Dr. Cornelius Borck is the former Canada Research Chair in Art History and Communication Studies, McGill.
