Description

Anil Seth's radical new theory of consciousness challenges our understanding of perception and reality, doing for brain science what Dawkins did for evolutionary biology.Consciousnessis the great unsolved mystery in our scientific understanding of the brain. Somewhere, somehow, inscribed in the brain is everything that makes youyou. But how do we grasp what happens in the brain to turn mereelectrical impulsesinto the vast range ofperceptions, thoughts and emotionswe feel from moment to moment?Anil Seth,one of Britain's leadingneuroscientists, charts the developments in our understanding ofconsciousness, revealing radical interdisciplinary breakthroughs that must transform the way we think about theself. Drawing on his original research and collaborations withcognitive scientists, neuroscientists, psychiatrists, brain imagers, virtual reality wizards, mathematicians and philosophers,he puts forward an exhilaratingnew theoryabout how we experience the world that should encourage us to view ourselves as less apartfromand more a partofthe rest of nature. Seth'srevolutionaryframework for consciousnesswill turn what you thought you knew about yourself on its head.
