BUDDHA’S BRAIN: THE PRACTICAL NEUROSCIENCE OF HAPPINESS, LOVE AND WISDOM
Book ID/图书代码: 09700009B32881
English Summary/英文概要: Jesus, Moses, Mohammed, Gandhi, and the Buddha all had brains built essentially like anyone else’s, yet they were able to harness their thoughts and shape their patterns of thinking in ways that changed history. With new breakthroughs in modern neuroscience and the wisdom of thousands of years of contemplative practice, it is possible for us to shape our own thoughts in a similar way for greater happiness, love, compassion, and wisdom.
Buddha’s Brain joins the forces of modern neuroscience with ancient contemplative teachings to show readers how they can work toward greater emotional well-being, healthier relationships, more effective actions, and deepened religious and spiritual understanding. This book will explain how the core elements of both psychological well-being and religious or spiritual life-virtue, mindfulness, and wisdom-are based in the core functions of the brain: regulating, learning, and valuing. Readers will also learn practical ways to apply this information, as the book offers many exercises they can do to tap the unused potential of the brain and rewire it over time for greater peace and well-being.
Chinese Summary/中文概要: 耶稣、摩西、默罕默德、甘地、佛陀本质上聪明程度不亚于任何其他人,然而他们有能力绞尽脑力改变历史。随着现代神经科学的突破以及几千年来的智慧的经验积累,我们以类似的方式追寻快乐、爱、热情和智慧越来越成为可能。
佛陀的智力运用了现代神经科学经验告诉读者如何成为更感性的人、健康的关系、更有效地行为以及更深入的宗教及精神理解。这本书将会解释心理健康和宗教价值的中心要素以及宗教生活、智慧作为大脑的中心功能,规定化、教育意义以及有价值。读者还能学到实际有用的方法来运用这些信息,因为在书里附了许多练习开启无法使用的大脑的潜能,使其能更好的发挥作用。(XJJ)

罗伯特D·楚沃戈,医学博士,哈佛医学院教授,医学伦理学院执行者以及波斯顿儿童医院危重病高级助手:“近期心理和神经科学的发展清晰有力的指出了我们大脑的运作以及这些神经逻辑元如何转变成我们对世界的认知。这些见解与千年来积累的智慧如出一辙。《佛陀的头脑》是一部简练实用的导向,告诉我们这些知识流如何转变成智慧、同情和谨慎的能力。”
泰瑞·帕特,《完整生活》作者之一:“里克·汉森巧妙地揭开大脑里尚不明朗的结构,帮助我们更娴熟的了解每一时段的精神感受。这本书写得很美,易读,而且很好的传达了一系列能为我们所达到自我同情、平衡及幸福的状态。极力推荐!”

These insights are profoundly congruent with the wisdom that has been developed over thousands of years in the contemplative traditions. The authors of Buddha’s Brain have given us a concise and practical guide to how these two currents of knowledge can be used to transform our capacity to engage both ourselves and others with wisdom, compassion, and mindfulness."---Robert D. Truog, MD, professor at Harvard Medical School, executive director of the Institute for Professionalism and Ethical Practice, and senior associate in critical care medicine at Children’s Hospital, Boston
"Rick Hanson ably unpacks key, un-obvious implications of brain research to help us more skillfully surf the waves of moment-to-moment mental experience. This beautifully written, easy-to-read book gracefully conveys a series of epiphanies that can enable us to achieve self-compassion, balance and happiness. Highly recommended!"---Terry Patten, co-author, Integral Life Practice
