I thought that Raymond Tallis had gone too?far when he introduced us to the term?¡°neuromania¡± in 2011 (Aping Mankind: Neuromania, Darwinitis and the Misrepresentation of Humanity). However, the award of?an Economic and Social Research Council grant to Aberystwyth University scholar Mark?Whitehead for research into ¡°Negotiating neuroliberalism¡± does seem to confirm the current obsession with neural processes (29?August, Grant winners). Can we expect a?study of neurocommunism to follow?
