Course Objective 「心靈的理論與實踐」(The Theory and Practice of the Mind)旨在對人的心理各個層面，從不同的角度進行探討。課程將以理論講授與實際操作交替進行:我們將借重當代學術研究成果，如腦神經科學、心理學、哲學、神經生物學、社會學等等，以增進我們對人自身重要議題的認識。這些議題至少包括:心靈(Mind)、心流(Mental Flow)、情緒(Emotion)、選擇(Choice)、決定(Decision)、感官(Sensations)、直覺(Intuition)、自我分析( Self-Analysis)、單純性(Simplicity)、潛意識(Subconscious)、創新(Novelty)、洞察力(Insight)與意志力 (Willpower)等等。若時間允許，我們將在課上播放相關的科學影片與電影。 The course investigates several key aspects of human mind from different angles. To achieve the goal, we shall discuss current topics and issues on the following subjects: Neuroscience, Psychology, Philosophy, Neurobiology, Sociology, etc. The lecturing shall proceed from reading texts to practicing subjects and methods. And the topics and issues will include at least: Mind, Mental flow, Emotion, Choice, Decision, Sensations, Intuition, Self-Analysis, Simplicity, Subconscious, Novelty, Insight, and Willpower, etc. We may watch some relevant scientific films and movies in the class if time allows.
