La transformación nietzscheana del pensamiento según Deleuze
2015
Deleuze ve en Nietzsche a uno de los filósofos que con mayor eficacia crítica contradice la concepción clásica del pensamiento como búsqueda de la verdad y como ejercicio de amor a la verdad. Este artículo analiza el significado que para Deleuze tiene la oposición de Nietzsche a la tradición filosófica, que considera que el pensamiento quiere y ama la verdad de la que nos vemos alejados por la acción de fuerzas extrañas al pensamiento (procedentes del cuerpo, de las pasiones, de los intereses, etc.). De este modo se muestra de qué modo esas fuerzas que intervienen en el pensamiento remiten el pensamiento mismo a las fuerzas que le subyacen en cuanto pensamiento.

Hume on the Phenomenological Discovery of the Self
1993
This paper presents a synthesis of my research into the problem of the self in Hume. The copious bibliography available on this topic indicates that the subject I suggest to discuss is problematic but also of crucial interest. I propose to develop the following argument, namely, that there exists in Hume a psychological awareness of the self. There is no incompatibility between the denial of personal identity in A Treatise of Human Nature Book I, and the arguments put forward in Book II Of the Passions, and in Book III, Of the Understanding of Morals. I shall maintain that Hume is not elaborating an ontological but a psychological theory of the self. This represents a new departure with reg…

Premeditated automaticity : the role of explicit cognition in the development of obsessive smoking
2010
- Abstract The purpose of the present study was to examine the role of explicit cognitions in relation to the development of obsessive smoking passion. Data derives from a longitudinal internet survey conducted among 939 daily smokers over a period of four months. Mental representations were the strongest predictor of obsessive smoking passion (ß=.47, p<.001) followed by habit strength (ß=.25, p<.001) and number of cigarettes smoked (ß=.09, p<.01). Altogether the variables accounted for 48% of the variance in obsessive smoking passion. The results indicated that mental representations, along with automatic processes, play an important role in the prediction of obsessive smoking passion. The…

On July 7, 2020 the world of Surgical Pathology lost one of the brightest minds ever: Prof. Juan Rosai.It certainly happened to many of us while approaching a difficult case to exclaim: - This is a case for Juan Rosai!
