Human beings, it was thought, could be understood purely by observing what they did. Internal mental states were dismissed as irrelevant. As Dr. Damasio put it, ''Neuroscience gave the cold shoulder to emotion.'' Feelings, he said, were considered ''elusive, indescribable, too subjective.'' When Dr. Damasio began to study affect in the late 1980's, it was by accident, not design. Dr. Damasio and his wife, Hanna Damasio, also a neurologist, became professors at the University of Iowa, where he acquired a reputation as an authority on language, memory and Alzheimer's disease. But it was his work with brain-damaged patients with impaired decision-making skills that led him to wonder about emotions.''I was forced to think about emotions because of those patients with frontal lobe damage,'' Dr. Damasio said. ''They had incredible problems with social behavior that had normally been attributed only to cognitive disturbances. I was very struck by the fact that they had clear disturbances of emotion. I started thinking that emotions might play a role in making decisions and choices in a normal way.''">I Feel, Therefore I Am</a>.

Unsatisfied with scholastic philosophy and troubled by skepticism of the sort expounded by Montaigne, Descartes soon conceived a comprehensive plan for applying mathematical methods in order to achieve perfect certainty in human knowledge. During a twenty-year period of secluded life in Holland, he produced the body of work that secured his philosophical reputation. Descartes moved to Sweden in 1649, but did not survive his first winter.">Ren&#0233;</a> <a href="http://serendip.brynmawr.edu/exhibitions/Mind/Descartes.html" title="Mind and Body: Ren&#0233; Descartes to William James">Descartes</a> and <a href="http://rwmeijer.ws/spinoza" title="The Philosophy of Benedictus de Spinoza (1632-1677)">Benedictus <a href="http://home.pi.be/~pin86315/spinoza/essay2.htm" title="Spinoza’s Ethica A systematical presentation of the emotions (affectus)">de</a> <a href="http://www.trinity.edu/cbrown/modern/litrev/Spinoza-mindbody.html" title="Spinoza on Mind and Body - Rachel Florence">Spinoza</a> upon its head--or at least the heads of <a href="http://www.deakin.edu.au/hbs/GAGEPAGE/Pgstory.htm" title="Phineas Gage’s Story">Phineas Gage</a> and one <a href="http://www.gustavus.edu/oncampus/academics/philosophy/kaaren.html" title="Emotions and Social Intelligence: Jane Braaten and Antonio Damasio">Elliott</a>--via his research and writings such as <a href="http://psyche.cs.monash.edu.au/v6/psyche-6-10-mosca.html" title="A Review Essay on Antonio Damasio's The Feeling of What Happens: Body and Emotion in the Making of Consciousness."><i>The Feeling of What Happens: Body and Emotion in the Making of Consciousness</i></a>, <a href="http://www.cix.co.uk/~acampbell/bookreviews/r/damasio.html" title="Anthony Campbell reviews Antonio Damasio Descartes Error: Emotion, reason, and the human brain"><i>Descartes' Error: Emotion, reason, and the human brain</i></a> and <a href="http://www.curledup.com/spinoza.htm" title="Of the tremendous scientific revolutions in the past hundred years, in understanding the physical structure of reality, the genetic basis of humanity, and the history of the universe, understanding how the mind rules us is only now coming to the fore.
