Neste livro, mergulharemos em temas fascinantes, abordando fenômenos que transcendem o individual e tocam o coletivo. Traremos exemplos, casos, como se diz na medicina. No entanto, esses casos não tratam apenas de homens ou mulheres com identidades, mas de ideias catalisadoras de transformações, regidas pelo arquétipo do herói. Um caso particularmente expressivo emerge na sociedade como um fenômeno, sob a forma de candidaturas, como aconteceu recentemente na prefeitura da maior cidade do país.

Over the last decade, scientists have discovered the importance and widespread presence in the body of a remarkable family of proteins known as prion proteins. Research links various types of prion proteins to neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's—and this has fueled the search for new drugs that could halt the progression of these terrible disorders. Other discoveries have revealed the essential roles prion proteins play in memory and immunity, and the part they may have played in the beginnings of life on our planet.

Min W. Jung offers a new understanding of the neural basis of innovation in terms of humans' exceptional capacity for imagination and high-level abstraction. He provides an engaging account of recent advances in neuroscience that have shed light on the neural underpinnings of these profoundly important abilities. Jung examines key discoveries concerning the hippocampus and neural circuits that have demystified the processes underlying imagination and abstract thinking. He also considers how these capacities might have evolved as well as possible futures for intelligence.
