The Mind/Brain relationship
The field of cognitive science is an amazing and burgeoning field of contemplation and study. It takes the big philosophical questions (think: "I think therefore I am") and puts them under the microscope, or in the laboratory, and attempts to discover the reason for our reasoning.

The New Map Of The Brain
Thursday, Jan. 18, 2007 By JEFFREY KLUGER
Trying to map the brain has always been cartography for fools. Most of the other parts of the body reveal their workings with little more than a glance. The heart is self-evidently a pump; the lungs are clearly bellows. But the brain, which does more than any organ, reveals least of all. The 3-lb. lump of wrinkled tissue--with no moving parts, no joints or valves--not only serves as the motherboard for all the body's other systems but also is the seat of your mind, your thoughts, your sense that you exist at all. You have a liver; you have your limbs. You are your brain.
