"Beethoven's Anvil"

William L. Benzon, "Beethoven's Anvil", 2001, Oxford University Press, Oxford
「In one way or another the postmoderns are obsessed with the possibilities and difficulties of interpersonal understanding.」（p.19）
「the central nervous system (CNS), consisting of the brain and the spinal cord, functions in two domains external to it, the internal milieu and the external world.」（p.32）
「the central nervous system operates in two environments, the external world and the internal milieu, and it regulates the relationship between the external world and the interior milieu on behalf of that milieu.」（p.33）
「the neural representation of other people」（p.34）
「You are your body, but the division of the nervous system directed toward the external world is quite capable of treating your body as an object on a footing with other objects. The neural self (NS) in the CNS is the neural representation of that body.」（p.34）
