Joseph E. Ledoux Quotes

We Can Also Monitor Signals Coming From Within Our Body. This Is, Again, The Foundation Of Damasio's Somatic Marker Hypothesis (see Chapter 5). The Most Specific Of These Are Signals From The Somatosensory System, Which Transmits Information About Touch, Temperature, Irritation, And Pain From Skin And Muscles To Cortical Processing Areas, Much Like The Visual Or Auditory Systems Do. When You Have A Headache, Backache, Sore Muscles, An Itch, Feel Warmth Or Cool Air On Your Skin, Or Are Feverish, You Become Aware Of Somatosensory Information Being Processed In Cortical Areas.
