English summary: Does the brain think? Is it the creator of the world of experience, the constructor of the subject? This widespread interpretation of the neurosciences is contrasted in this book with an ecological conception: The brain is above all an organ for mediating the relationships between the organism and the environment and for our relationships with other people. These interactions are constantly altering the brain, making it an organ that is biographically, socially and culturally shaped. In short, it is not the brain as such, but rather the living human being who feels, thinks and acts. In this sixth edition, the author presents a new updated version of his pioneering work, which was enthusiastically welcomed by specialists and the press. German description: Denkt das Gehirn? Ist es der Schopfer der erlebten Welt, der Konstrukteur des Subjekts? Dieser verbreiteten Deutung der Neurowissenschaften stellt das Buch eine okologische Konzeption gegenuber: Das Gehirn ist vor allem ein Vermittlungsorgan fur die Beziehungen des Organismus zur Umwelt und fur unsere Beziehungen zu anderen Menschen. Verkorperte Interaktionen verandern das Gehirn fortlaufend und machen es zu einem biographisch, sozial und kulturell gepragten Organ. Fazit: Es ist nicht das Gehirn fur sich, sondern der lebendige Mensch, der fuhlt, denkt und handelt. Mit der 6. Auflage legt der Autor eine erneut aktualisierte Fassung seines wegweisenden Werkes vor, das von der Fachwelt und Presse begeistert aufgenommen wurde.
