Neurophilosophy appeared at the dawn of the twenty-first century as a branch of neurosciences. The aim of this article is to review critically some of the epistemological and anthropological debates that neurophilosophy has brought forth. In order to do so, the philosophical research conducted by the UNESCO Chair of Philosophy for Peace will be used as the main thread of the analysis. To accomplish this critical review, the article has been organized into two parts: the first is of epistemological nature, and the second has an anthropological perspective. This analysis will lead us to question the significance of the contributions of neurophilosophy to a better understanding of the human being.La neurofilosofía se presenta en los albores del siglo xxi como una rama de la neurociencia. En este artículo nos proponemos hacer una revisión crítica de algunos debates epistemológicos y antropológicos que la neurofilosofía ha traído nuevamente a colación. Para este análisis se tomará como hilo conductor las investigaciones filosóficas que se vienen realizando desde la Cátedra UNESCO de Filosofía para la Paz. El texto se organiza en dos partes, una primera de carácter epistemológico y la segunda de perfil antropológico. Todo ello nos conducirá a cuestionar algunos de los avances significativos que la neurofilosofía puede plantear para una mejor comprensión del ser humano
