A bold new book reveals how we can tap the intelligence that exists beyond our brains—in our bodies, our surroundings, and our relationships
Use your head.
That’s what we tell ourselves when facing a tricky problem or a difficult project. But a growing body of research indicates that we’ve got it exactly backwards. What we need to do, says acclaimed science writer Annie Murphy Paul, is think outside the brain. A host of “extra-neural” resources—the feelings and movements of our bodies, the physical spaces in which we learn and work, and the minds of those around us— can help us focus more intently, comprehend more deeply, and create more imaginatively.
The Extended Mind outlines the research behind this exciting new vision of human ability, exploring the findings of neuroscientists, cognitive scientists, psychologists, and examining the practices of educators, managers, and leaders who are already reaping the benefits of thinking outside the brain. She excavates the untold history of how artists, scientists, and authors—from Jackson Pollock to Jonas Salk to Robert Caro—have used mental extensions to solve problems, make discoveries, and create new works. In the tradition of Howard Gardner’s Frames of Mind or Daniel Goleman’s Emotional Intelligence, The Extended Mind offers a dramatic new view of how our minds work, full of practical advice on how we can all think better.

万维刚精英日课5解读 1.大脑不是一台孤立的思考机器,它的性能会受到身体和周围环境、周围的人的强烈影响。 2.你不应该把大脑当机器用,应该把它当成一个活的、有个性的东西用,要顺着它的脾气用。 3.大脑最喜欢的并不是极简的、没有任何“干扰”的情景:我们喜欢自然的情境。 4.保罗书中各种提升脑力的方法可以归结为两个思路 —— 一个是「减少认知负担」,一个是「提供认知抓手」。
