Abstract
We can say that as Nietzsche killed God, Hegel killed the story, Barthes killed the author, and Foucault killed the man, neurosciences killed psychoanalysis. Psychoanalysis not to be confused with psychology or psychiatry. Psychoanalysis is intended as a theory and a therapeutic technique. As theory would be acceptable if show is true enough; as technique, if shown to be sufficiently effective. But to sustain the claim to truth or claim of efficiency, their ideas and practices must submit the same to the canons of development of pure and applied science, at least to be considered as a science. Psychoanalysis cannot get pass the tests of scientific nature. The psychoanalytic session is perhaps comparable to the act of Christian confession with the priest; as Spinoza said: "There is in us absolutely nothing we cannot be aware". Moreover, neurology attends a technological revolution that allows to deepen the knowledge about the brain and its functioning. For example, in the brain biologically learning processes occur, and soon, neurologists, pediatricians, school doctors, psychologists, teachers and educators should work together to complete the puzzle involving the educational phenomenon
