This volume celebrates the life achievement of Jason W. Brown, who, along with Jean Piaget, Heinz Werner, Alexander Luria and the Würzburg school, has significantly contributed to the development of microgenetic theory as an intellectual paradigm capable of application in both clinical practice (behavioral neurology, neuropsychology) and theoretical speculations (psychoanalysis, philosophy of mind). Essays with a range of focus as wide as Brown's expertise have been collected in three major divisions: neuropsychology (microstructure of action, symptomatology, neuro-rehabilitation, neurolinguistics, locationism), theoretical psychology (consciousness, hypnosis, morphogenesis, personality development, psychoanalysis, Buddhist psychology), and philosophy of mind (evolutionary epistemology, emergence/novelty/creativity, subjectivity, will and action, Whiteheadian process philosophy).
