About the Book

Una fascinante aproximación a la ciencia del cerebro para entender por qué actuamos, sentimos y pensamos como lo hacemos.

¿Cómo puede el cerebro, una masa arrugada, dar lugar a la inteligencia y la experiencia consciente? ¿Estaba en lo cierto Freud cuando afirmaba que estamos infestados de deseos sexuales prohibidos? ¿Cuál es la función de emociones como el asco, la gratitud o la vergüenza?

Paul Bloom, eminencia en el área de la psicología, ofrece una detallada introducción al cerebro y su historia, explorando los aspectos más íntimos de nuestra naturaleza a través de la ciencia de la mente. Este libro no es sólo una panorámica del campo de la psicología, sino que se centra en argumentar que es muy posible que una serie de teorías --ampliamente aceptadas en la disciplina-- sean equivocadas.

Psico es una muestra de cómo la psicología puede brindarnos conocimientos prácticos sobre temas tan trascendentales como el tratamiento de enfermedades mentales, la depresión y la ansiedad, o la mejor manera de llevar una vida feliz y satisfactoria.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A Next Big Idea Club Must-Read.

A compelling and accessible new perspective on the modern science of psychology, based on one of Yale's most popular courses of all time.

How does the brain--a three-pound wrinkly mass--give rise to intelligence and conscious experience? Was Freud right that we are all plagued by forbidden sexual desires? What is the function of emotions such as disgust, gratitude, and shame? Renowned psychologist Paul Bloom answers these questions and many more in Psych, his riveting new book about the science of the mind.

Psych is an expert and passionate guide to the most intimate aspects of our nature, serving up the equivalent of a serious university course while being funny, engaging, and full of memorable anecdotes. But Psych is much more than a comprehensive overview of the field of psychology. Bloom reveals what psychology can tell us about the most pressing moral and political issues of our time--including belief in conspiracy theories, the role of genes in explaining human differences, and the nature of prejudice and hatred.

Bloom also shows how psychology can give us practical insights into important issues--from the treatment of mental illnesses such as depression and anxiety to the best way to lead happy and fulfilling lives. Psych is an engrossing guide to the most important topic there is: it is the story of us.
