Persons and their minds

It is time to set basic ideas into their rightful places – after science journalists have
frantically displaced them for the sake of creating a public interest havoc. Topics like “mind”, “self” and “brain” are of that kind. The promises made about the almighty power of the neurosciences have become a discourse form that makes a link with serious science in its popular representation – and hence ends up in a fashion show of multi-coloured brain images that hide the reality of basic sciences about the mind actually cover (Werbik & Benetka, 2016). This reality – or maybe best called counter-representation of socially over-represented knowledge domain – needs to be revealed before the “bubble” of contemporary neurosciences “bursts” and we again are facing the nakedness of the Brain-King in front of all of us, the mental miserables.
