Synopsis "How we Learn: Why Brains Learn Better Than any Machine. For now"

"There are words that are so familiar they obscure rather than illuminate the thing they mean, and 'learning' is such a word. It seems so ordinary, everyone does it. Actually it's more of a black box, which Dehaene cracks open to reveal the awesome secrets within."--The New York Times Book Review An illuminating dive into the latest science on our brain's remarkable learning abilities and the potential of the machines we program to imitate them The human brain is an extraordinary learning machine. Its ability to reprogram itself is unparalleled, and it remains the best source of inspiration for recent developments in artificial intelligence. But how do we learn? What innate biological foundations underlie our ability to acquire new information, and what principles modulate their efficiency? In How We Learn, Stanislas Dehaene finds the boundary of computer science, neurobiology, and cognitive psychology to explain how learning really works and how to make the best use of the brain's learning algorithms in our schools and universities, as well as in everyday life and at any age.

Stanislas Dehaene (Roubaix, France, May 12, 1965) is an internationally renowned cognitive neuroscientist, recognized for his research on numerical cognition, the neural bases of reading, and the neural correlates of consciousness. Since 2017, he has held the chair of Experimental Cognitive Psychology at the Collège de France and, since 1989, has directed the INSERM Unit 562 of Cognitive Neuroimaging.

Dehaene earned his bachelor's degree in mathematics at the École Normale Supérieure in Paris and completed his PhD in Experimental Psychology in 1989 under the supervision of Jacques Mehler. His most influential work, The Number Sense (1997), popularized the concept of "number sense," an innate ability to understand numbers and arithmetic relationships.

Throughout his career, he has received numerous accolades, such as the Centennial Fellowship from the James S. McDonnell Foundation in 1999, the Grand Scientific Prize from the Louis D. Foundation of the Institut de France in 2003, and the "Brain" Prize in 2014.

In addition to his research work, Dehaene has been an associate editor of the journal Cognition and a member of the editorial board of several scientific publications. His work has had a significant impact on the understanding of human mental processes and continues to be a reference in the field of cognitive neuroscience.

El contenido del libro es excepcional. Respecto a la presentación, si bien tiene una sección a colores, la calidad de papel debió mejorarse para igualar el contenido.
