En 'El error de Descartes', Antonio Damasio desafía la arraigada creencia cartesiana de la separación entre la mente y el cuerpo. Damasio argumenta que las emociones y los sentimientos son fundamentales para la racionalidad humana, respaldándose en estudios que demuestran cómo el daño en la corteza prefrontal puede afectar la capacidad de tomar decisiones efectivas. Este libro, publicado originalmente en 1994, se ha convertido en una referencia esencial en la intersección de la ciencia y la filosofía, ofreciendo una nueva perspectiva sobre la relación entre el cerebro, las emociones y la razón.
