摘要
This article explores the historical construction of a bio-psychological model of a pre-diagnostic Parkinson's Disease Personality. The essay interrogates the historically situated value-laden assumptions about character traits thought to be correlated with neuro-molecular variations measured in the brain. The epistemological security of the bio-psychological model is examined in the light of patients' own interpretations of their cognitive experiences of creativity, and the meaning of their feeling "emergent'' as contrasted to the experience of a static human existence.
