Advancement on the Mechanics of Conceptual Thinking

The knowledge accumulated about the implication of the inner structures of the limbic system in
articulate language processing, from which conceptual thinking emerges, is now advanced to the
point that a clear mechanics of conceptual thinking can now be formulated. Description of the
mechanics of conceptual thinking stemming from interaction sequences between the limbic system
and the verbal areas of the neocortex. Description of the rise of the attention level to full active
awareness when a feeling of uneasiness due to a verbal stimulus is triggered by the amygdala,
followed by an active cogitation process involving the verbal areas of the neocortex, ending in the
strengthening in the neocortex by the hippocampus of a synaptic arborescence corresponding to a
modified verbal sequence that removes or reduces the feeling of uneasiness that initiated the
sequence. Description of the generalization ability stemming from the use of articulate languages,
acquired by education, from which emerges conceptual thinking and the collectively intelligible
mathematical language that also develops to various degrees in some individuals by education.
Description of the mathematical thinking mode, whose engrams have been located in areas of the
neocortex that do not overlap the verbal areas.
