ISBN: 9780823276073."Being Brains offers a critical exploration of neurocentrism, the belief that ââ¬Åwe are our brains,ââ¬Â which came to prominence in the 1990s. Encouraged by advances in neuroimaging, the humanities and social sciences have gravitated toward the brain as well, developing neuro-subspecialties in fields such as anthropology, aesthetics, education, history, law, sociology, and theology. Even in the business world, dubious enterprises such as ââ¬Åneuromarketingââ¬Â and ââ¬Åneurobicsââ¬Â have emerged to take advantage of the heightened sensitivity to all things neuro.
