T2  - Neuropsychiatry and Behavioral Neurology: Principles and Practice
AB  - One  of  the  fundamental  working  hypotheses  of  modern  neuroscience  is  that  the  functioning  of  the  brain  permits  and  shapes  the  expression  of  the  mind.  Cognitive,  perceptual,  affective,  and  behavioral  capacities  and  limits  are  determined  by  neural  structures  and  the  dynamic  flow  of  information  within  them.  The  shifting  contents  of  momentary  experience  are  the  product  of  precisely  coordinated,  ever-changing  combinations  of  electrical  activity  within  richly  connected  neural  networks.  Put  another  way,  neural  states  encode  mental  experiences.  These  complex  neurobiological  processes  are  scaffolded  by  evolution  via  inherited  factors,  animated  by  environmental  inputs,  and  chiseled  by  experience  and  learning.  The  system  learns  about  itself  and  the  workings  of  its  environment  through  continuous  prediction  and  feedback,  self-generated  actions  and  environmental  inputs  shape  this  dynamic  neural  circuitry.  Brain-behavior  relationships  are  complex  but  patterned:  specific  neural  activities  support  specific  mental  states  and  localized  brain  dysfunction  leads  to  focal  neurobehavioral  changes.  This  schematic  framework  relating  brain  and  mind  is  embedded  in  the  clinical  fields  of  behavioral  neurology  and  neuropsychiatry  and  serves  as  this  chapter’s  main  axiom.
