Abstract
My last two books (2012, 2014) are dedicated to the research done in cognitive neuroscience in the last 4-5 years. In this chapter, I intend to present a general image of cognitive neuroscience (a sub-domain of cognitive science), followed by an investigation of several essential topics in this field: localization (differentiation– integration in the brain), the binding problem and multisensory integration, and the ‘optimism vs. skepticism’ debate in cognitive neuroscience as a science. In the conclusion of this chapter, it will become clear that cognitive neuroscience is not a real science, but rather a pseudoscience.
