This is my favorite quote of this piece, Mike: "Neuroscience has joined company with other totalizing worldviews - Marxism, Freudianism, critical theory - that have been victim to overuse and misapplication." I also like the term "brain porn". I don't think it is the fault of neuroscientists, however, that everyone wants to jump on the bandwagon and use what passes for the most respected form of evidence. I think that little bit of wanting to formulate an argument with proper support has to go to the rhetoricians.
