平衡大脑:心理健康科学,英国版
A FINANCIAL TIMES & SUNDAY TIMES BOOK OF THE YEAR
'Fascinating . . . a refreshing counterblast to many popular ideas about wellbeing' Prospect 'Excellent . . . anyone reading it will come away with a kinder, better understanding of themselves' Lucy Foulkes
There are many routes to mental wellbeing and award-winning neuroscientist Camilla Nord is at the forefront of finding them. In this ground-breaking book, she offers a revelatory tour of the scientific and technological developments that are revolutionizing the way we think about mental health, showing why and how events - and treatments - can affect people in such different ways.
In The Balanced Brain, Nord reframes mental health as an intricate, self-regulating process, one which is different for all of us. She examines a huge diversity of treatments, from therapy and medication to recreational drugs and electrical brain stimulation, to show how they work, and why they sometimes don't. In doing so, she reveals how the small things we do to lift our mood during the course of a day - a piece of chocolate, a coffee, chatting to a friend - often work on the same pathways in our brain as the latest pharmacological treatments for mental health disorders. Whether they help us to manage pain, learn from experience or expend energy on the things that are important for our survival, these conscious actions are part of a complex process that is unique to each individual and the constant backdrop to our everyday lives.
Nord shows that, with so many factors at play, there are more possibilities for recovery and resilience than we might think. Whether you're suffering or simply doing your best to stay afloat, this book is an invitation to discover what makes each of us feel better, and why.
'Compelling, revolutionary, compassionate . . . down-to-earth and insightful' Irish Times
《爱尔兰时报》评论道:"引人注目、革命性的、富有同情心……平易近人且有洞察力"《金融时报》和《周日时报》年度最佳图书奖
"引人入胜……它为许多流行的关于福祉的想法提供了一种令人耳目一新的反派"《前景》杂志
"杰出的……任何人读了这本书都会对自我理解有更好的认识"露西·福克斯
寻找它们的道路有很多,获奖的神经科学家卡米拉·诺德(Camilla Nord)处于前沿。在这本 groundbreaking 的书中,她向我们展示了科学和技术的发展如何彻底改变了我们看待心理健康的方式,并解释了为什么和怎样事件及其治疗会影响人们以如此不同的方式。
在《平衡大脑》一书中,诺德将心理健康重新定义为一个复杂的自我调节过程,每个个体都有自己。她研究了各种各样的治疗方法,从心理治疗到药物,再到娱乐药物以及脑电刺激,以展示它们的工作原理和为什么有时不会奏效。通过这样做,她揭示了我们一天中的小举动——一块巧克力、一杯咖啡、和朋友聊天—经常会在大脑中激活相同的路径,这种路径正是最新的精神健康障碍的药理学治疗所采用的。
无论是为了管理疼痛、从经验中学到东西还是为生存的重要事物而消耗能量,这些有意识的行为都是个体特有的独特过程的一部分,也是我们日常生活中持续存在的背景。
诺德展示了在众多因素的影响下,恢复和适应力的可能性比我们认为的要多得多。无论你是病了还是仅仅尽力保持稳定,这本书都是一次发现让我们感觉更好的东西的机会以及为什么。
