Descripción editorial
Our methods of thinking are a product of thousands of years of cultural evolution. These patterned thoughts and behaviours may be a handicap in our rapidly changing world. Our culture-influenced mindsets can be evaluated in the light of brain science and cultural anthropology. Neuroanthropology, a multidisciplinary field integrating neuroscience and anthropology, answers the need to assess our culture-bound behaviours. It is the study of the cultural basis of mind and the biological basis of cultures--a cohesion which unites the realms of art, religion and science. The scope expands existing paradigms and explores new perspectives that may break cultural barriers and cultural mindsets. **********
