Description & Specifications

Anil Seth's new theory of consciousness challenges our understanding of perception and reality, doing for consciousness what Dawkins did for evolutionary biology. "Being You" is not as simple as it sounds. Somehow, inside our brains, billions of neurons work together to create our conscious experience. How does this happen? Why do we experience life in the first person? After over twenty years of research on the brain, world-renowned neuroscientist Anil Seth proposes a radical new theory of consciousness and the self. His unique theory of what it means to 'be you' upends everything you thought you knew about yourself.

Seth thinks clearly and intensely about one of the most difficult problems in science and philosophy, cutting through unnecessary details with the mind of a scientist and the skill of a storyteller.

If you read one book on consciousness, it should be Seth's.
