Specificatii
Even if you've never seen a zombie movie or television show, you
could identify an undead ghoul if you saw one. With their endless
wandering, lumbering gait, insatiable hunger, antisocial behavior,
and apparently memory-less existence, zombies are the walking
nightmares of our deepest fears. What do these characteristic
behaviors reveal about the inner workings of the zombie mind? Could
we diagnose zombism as a neurological condition by studying their
behavior? In Do Zombies Dream of Undead Sheep?, neuroscientists and
zombie enthusiasts Timothy Verstynen and Bradley Voytek apply their
neuro-know-how to dissect the puzzle of what has happened to the
zombie brain to make the undead act differently than their human
prey. Combining tongue-in-cheek analysis with modern
neuroscientific principles, Verstynen and Voytek show how zombism
can be understood in terms of current knowledge regarding how the
brain works. In each chapter, the authors draw on zombie popular
culture and identify a characteristic zombie behavior that can be
explained using neuroanatomy, neurophysiology, and brain-behavior
relationships. Through this exploration they shed light on
fundamental neuroscientific questions such as: How does the brain
function during sleeping and waking? What neural systems control
movement? What is the nature of sensory perception?Walking an
ingenious line between seriousness and satire, Do Zombies Dream of
Undead Sheep? leverages the popularity of zombie culture in order
to give readers a solid foundation in neuroscience.
