Recent findings in the natural sciences have confirmed that it is possible for humans to achieve these structural and functional changes through various life-style practices. It is argued that meditation enables us to influence some aspects of our biological make-up and, for example, could boost our cognitive flexibility as well as our ability to act compassionate. Such changes are likely to facilitate the instilling of a number of epistemic virtues which have great bearing on our quality of life. This book offers the reader an accessible introduction to a set of neuro-enhancement methods, with a special focus on meditation techniques, and explores how such practices could contribute to make us better decision-makers and improve our moral virtues. The book is suitable for anyone looking for a text discussing the effects of neuro-enhancement from a secular ethics perspective. | | 出版日期 | Book 2015 | | 关键词 | improved decision-making; increased focus attention; meditation; meditation and neuroscience; neuroscien | | 版次 | 1 | | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-23517-2 | | isbn_softcover | 978-3-319-23516-5 | | isbn_ebook | 978-3-319-23517-2Series ISSN 2211-8101 Series E-ISSN 2211-811X | | issn_series | 2211-8101 | | copyright | The Author(s) 2015 |
