L’INTELLIGENZA:L’ARMA VINCENTE DELL’UOMO (2)
THE MIND-COMPUTER
The human brain, very impropriamente, può essere paragonato ad un computer. Prima di incominciare a funzionare ha bisogno di dati. L'uomo, che usciva dalla ferinità, questi dati non li aveva.
La sua massa-cervello era una TABULA RASA. Egli era come il neonato che "non immagina niente perchè non ha memorizzato niente" (Laborit, 1977: 42).
I dati (CONOSCENZE), che servivano per mettere in funzione il cervello, e farlo specializzare come MENTE, dovette acquisirli per gradi e lentamente. Questo PROCESSO EVOLUTIVO richiese tempi biblici.
Tempo materiale per accumulare i dati (CONOSCENZE) attraverso l'esperienza (informazioni memorizzate). Tempo per organizzare queste conoscenze e codificarle.
Man mano che acquisiva una maggiore amount of organized knowledge occurred greater specialization of the brain. So they grafted a positive process which was to grow the intellectual capacity of man.
And this growth is not going to stop. It is a mechanism that feeds on itself. Greater specialization of mind enabled, and allows the development of a greater amount of knowledge, which, in turn, provoke, and causes a further progress in the specialization of the brain (Morin, 1974).
And so it will continue until the brain has not fully exploited its full potential, 'which are used today around 3%.
fact, "... while the human brain produce software [elabora dati], e cioè mentre esplica tutte le sue funzioni, non rimane immutato. Cambia anche nella sua struttura.
“Il suo hardware [massa-cervello], che è costituito da trenta miliardi di cellule nervose [NEURONI], cambia a causa degli innumerevoli messaggi che determinate sostanze chimiche [NEUROTRASMETTITORI] fanno rimbalzare da una cellula all'altra.
Questa RETE MIRABILIS [cervello], come è stata chiamata, che lega tutte le cellule in conseguenza degli stimoli esterni, si modifica e si evolve " (Costa, 1986).
In altri termini, il cervello dell'uomo ha funzionato, attraverso le epoche storiche, come hanno funzionato i computers moderni, la cui capacità to respond (solve problems) is closely related to their programming.
input determines output. More data are supplied to the machine, the more it will be able to respond elaborate and complex, just like the human brain, which, let's not forget, has the fundamental skill 'ORDER, CATALOG, classify, EQUATE TO COMPARE , SELECT, Associations.
In short, the brain has the CAPACITA'-ENABLE 'to process data (information) acquired by them to extract the information they are entrusted.
In fact, "the intelligence of man can not consist only in increasing their knowledge, but is more properly, in the revised, Relabelled. and then generalize information in ways new and amazing "(Rosenfeld, 1988: 168).

How Many People Have Home Mortgages In The Us
L’INTELLIGENZA:L’ARMA VINCENTE DELL’UOMO (1)
THE LIVING HUMAN EQUIPMENT
Man is the product of evolution of forms of life on our planet. He comes from far away. In fact from far away. And, in its present form is relatively recent (few million years, says paleontology). For all we know, it seems that he is the only animal to use rational mass contained in his skull: the brain.
This mass-brain, biology tells us, is also the result of evolution. It is composed three distinct layers:
1) or the PALEOCERVELLO BRAIN Perino (from primitive, reptile), from which descend the impulses of aggression 'and instincts, and has a short memory;
2) the primate brain MAMMALS (over the first), with a long memory, which descend from the impulses of 'affectivity', feeling, and fear;
3) NEOCERVELLO or the neocortex, with the capacity to 'association, which is its sole being human, which makes a rational and intelligent, BUT ALSO BE WEAK.
biology tells us again that the neocortex has continued to grow and has remained unchanged since mid-Pleistocene. This explains why there is no biological difference between the various human races existing on our globe.
The evolution of living forms "had endowed man with a body that he could not use properly" (Koesler, 1959: 513). Nature had met all the immediate needs of other living forms. He
with long necks of giraffes to better reach the leaves on the trees. Had provided other hard hooves of animals. Still others pointed teeth. He had reduced the brains of others, spreading, however, that their visual cortex (birds).
Only the man had gone beyond its immediate needs and was equipped with a "LUXURY AND WHOLE BODY ... whose proper and full use would require the millennia of learning, assuming that the human species will ever learn to use all "(Koesler, 1959: 514). Currently it uses only 3%.
strictly speaking terms, its appear on earth, man had no need of an organ as complex to solve their daily problems, but this body will prove very useful when it becomes the hunter.
What is certain is that he did not know and could not use this' body in all its possibility 'and capable of transmitting.' It was full biological, but a scheme to work, needed an operating system, which was to be built through ' Experience (INFORMATION STORED) for millennia.
seems increasingly apparent that the mind and reason were not part of the crew BIOLOGICAL ORIGIN OF MAN, as his arms and his legs, his brain and his tongue, but that has acquired both slowly and has CONSTRUCTED WITH HUGE EFFORTS.
