Le cerveau et l'inconscient: Neurosciences et psychanalyse [French]

By Arlette Pellé

On one side, neuroscience and the brain, on the other the psychoanalyst and the subject. Two disciplines, ordinarily closed to each other, even at odds, two conflicting logics - that of scientific rationality and that of the laws of language and two visions of the human being? Can knowledge and technology transform the human being into a new being, neither man nor machine, a hybrid of electronic systems and a biological body? Are subjective experience and psychic facts, the realm of cerebral activity, the matter of life? This work demonstrates that psychoanalysis plays a limited role in the attempt to objectify the human being but that paths to finding connections between science and the mind and the science of the subject are opening without either field of knowledge losing its specificity.
