Search the Garden

Jorge Luis Borges

  • "Under the trees of England I meditated on this lost and perhaps mythical labyrinth. I imagined it untouched and perfect on the secret summit of some mountain; I imagined it drowned under rice paddies or beneath the sea; I imagined it infinite, made not only of eight-sided pavilions and of twisting paths but also of rivers, provinces and kingdoms. I thought of a maze of mazes, of a sinuous, ever growing maze which would take in both past and future and would somehow involve the stars."

New Journal - Neuroethics

The journal Neuroethics - of which I am the editor - is now accepting submissions. I define 'neuroethics' very broadly. As well as covering issues in applied ethics arising from interventions into the mind (brain privacy, neuroenhancement, and so on), the journal will also publish work on the ways in which all the sciences of the mind illuminate traditional issues in philosophy. So understood, some of the work of frequent contributors to this blog counts as neuroethics: survey work on causation and harm, on the intuitiveness of compatibilism, and of course work on social psychology and free will.

For more on how broadly I construe neuroethics, have a look at my new book.
