商品描述
The declared goal of this book, an extended and revised translation of the German edition (2021), is to show how a unified model of the psyche and body can be developed via insights from psychoanalysis, neurology and computer technology. On the one hand, such a model allows for the testing of psychological and social theories on a scientific basis with the help of simulation experiments. On the other hand, the model developed according to the functional structures of the human brain and psyche provides the basis for artificial intelligence systems. These are systems with cognitive capabilities that can save human lives, save energy, ensure safety at airports, provide support in old-age care and in the medical field; in other words and generally speaking, systems that can simplify our lives in a relevant way and on a broad basis.
A great deal of time and money is invested in genetic engineering and neurology, but research into the mental apparatus in the context of the neurological part, i.e., modeling the brain in a holistic way, is sparse in every respect. However, the results of the scientific project SiMA, of which the first author has been a driving force, show that the research of this organ, which in the authors' understanding includes the mental apparatus, as a whole, is quite feasible today. This is also the main message of the book, which addresses topics such as artificial intelligence, the brain, psychoanalysis, behavioral models, complexity, bionics of the mental, emotions and feelings, consciousness and awareness, preconscious and unconscious, the functional (and not only behavioral) description and modeling of the brain and especially of the mental apparatus, and some more.
In the world of technology, there is generally little interest in psychoanalysis, whereas in the world of psychoanalysis, people usually refuse to deal with mathematics and technology, especially computer technology. Is there an information theory of the brain on the one hand, and of computer technology on the other hand? The authors attempt to answer this question from both sides. With the goal to reach as many readers as possible and to provoke, the authors break with traditions and give space to new forms of thinking and argue that it is crucial to take a new path in automation, in artificial intelligence and in (technical) cognitive science, but also in psychoanalysis and neurology, in order to create a common basis for scientific and technical possibilities that have been previously inaccessible.

本書的宣告目標是，作為德文版（2021年）的擴展和修訂翻譯，展示如何通過精神分析、神經學和計算機技術的見解來發展一個統一的心理與身體模型。一方面，這樣的模型允許在科學基礎上通過模擬實驗來測試心理和社會理論。另一方面，根據人腦和心理的功能結構所發展的模型，為人工智慧系統提供了基礎。這些系統具備認知能力，能夠拯救人類生命、節省能源、確保機場安全、在老年護理和醫療領域提供支持；換句話說，這些系統能夠在相關且廣泛的基礎上簡化我們的生活。
在基因工程和神經學上投入了大量的時間和金錢，但在神經學部分的背景下對心理裝置的研究，即對大腦進行整體建模，無論在任何方面都相對稀少。然而，第一作者作為推動力的科學項目SiMA的結果顯示，對這個器官的研究（在作者的理解中包括心理裝置）作為一個整體，今天是相當可行的。這也是本書的主要信息，涉及的主題包括人工智慧、大腦、精神分析、行為模型、複雜性、心理生物學、情感與感覺、意識與覺知、前意識與無意識、大腦的功能（而不僅僅是行為）描述與建模，特別是心理裝置的建模，還有其他一些主題。
在技術界，對精神分析的興趣普遍不高，而在精神分析界，人們通常拒絕接觸數學和技術，特別是計算機技術。大腦是否存在一種信息理論，而計算機技術又是否存在另一種？作者試圖從兩個方面回答這個問題。為了吸引更多讀者並引發思考，作者打破傳統，給予新思維形式空間，並主張在自動化、人工智慧以及（技術）認知科學，甚至在精神分析和神經學中，採取新路徑是至關重要的，以創造一個共同的基礎，為先前無法接觸的科學和技術可能性鋪路。
作者簡介
Dietmar Dietrich completed his studies in Electrical Engineering in Karlsruhe via the second educational path, after his education as an electronics technician, with the help of the Studienstiftung des Deutschen Volkes (German National Academic Foundation). After his doctorate, he worked in aviation and later in communications engineering. His main topics as a professor of computer technology (Bielefeld and Vienna), after working in industry, were mainly processes of automation and increasingly problems of Artificial Intelligence (AI). He was (co-)organizer of many national and international scientific conferences and worked for decades worldwide in industrial as well as scientific committees. He is the author of six Springer books and conference proceedings, in both English and German, including the titles "Simulating the Mind" (2009) and "Artificial Intelligence: A Bridge Between Psychoanalysis and Neurology - The Psi-Organ in a Nutshell" (2023).
Volker Hartmann Cardelle is a psychoanalyst, psychologist and psychotherapist in the city of Chur (Switzerland). He studied psychology and philosophy at the University of Zurich and graduated in 2017. Parallel to his studies, he spent ten years researching the works of Sigmund Freud, and published on the consequences of modern brain research for Freud's model of the psychic apparatus. He became a psychoanalyst in 2021 and completed his postgraduate training as a psychotherapist in 2024. Since 2022, he has been working on his doctorate in philosophy at the University of Ghent (Belgium) on the subject of the consequences of computer technology for the interpretation of Sigmund Freud's scientific work.
